The sequence of events proceeding the main Chronicles of Enoch Series
When one is at war or, at least, it appears that one is does only the force of arms one bears affect the chance of victory?
Men die, women and children die…dear Lord, even immortals can die if you know what you are doing. The Exile murdered a Giant twenty times his size with what appeared to be very little effort. Throughout your history, there are illustrations of the concept I am trying to highlight to you; the largest army full of the largest warriors does not always guarantee victory. Far from it, in fact. Victories are born in here; the heart and the mind.
An occupying army can be murdered in their sleep by the conquered, poisoned as they eat or bathe. The oppressed and downtrodden inevitably rise up. Win the heart and they will not.
A superior force can be overwhelmed by a much smaller one that uses its mind, look at Alexander the Great when he defeated Xerxes with a much smaller army.
You do not win battles or wars simply using swords and armour, although they do help. You win by knowing what your enemy is going to do before he does it. You win by having her think that you are, in fact, her very best friend in the whole wide world.
