Hêruwulfáz had remained silent for the entire thengoz, when he finally rose to the stand and spoke to the gathered men:
- I have listened to the thengoz, and the wish of many men are that we march west. The west it is then, the celtae shall feel our wrath! However, the land of the Sequani is allied to the tribe of the Arverni and heavily defended. An army for such an expedition would take years to muster and train. I suggest we go through the land of the Nervae. The tribes of the belgae have been weakened by the strife of the Auedi and Arverni, and should easily fall to our warriors.
- The army will march for Bagacos, the capital of the Nervae. From there, the bellovacae belgae will be next, and then our armies will fall over Galla like the killing snow of the vargavinter!
