It was simply ridiculous, for all intents and purposes, the Emerald Realm, for the first time, perhaps ever, was at war, and at that, the people were facing the most dire threat to life and peace of this whole world, yet, nothing was happening, they were simply remaining in place, waiting for the enemy to strike first, knowing that once the gear began turning, that there would be no turning back, that even if both sides preferred to avoid senseless destruction, that it would occur anyways.
Simply put, they were biding their time, trying to make it so the real war would begin as late as possible, in the meantime, they focused on creating countermeasures, and preparing themselves to the best of their capacities.
