Let me get this straight. You’re living in an elf kingdom, and some mystical force has declared war on the elves, but useful reinforcements won’t make it before the kingdom is destroyed. Did I get all that?

That is essentially what's going on yes. This elvish kingdom suffered from the last war. This was a result of that last war. If this was a warning, a declaration, then I think the king deserves to know before it's too late. I can make it to the capital within five days. Three days if I ride through the night. The ride back would take a week if I'm bringing a force from the capital over. But then again, without any sufficient evidence that something bad'll happen here, they're not going to send anything.
