It was well known that during wars, assassins were mainly used to assassinate important and powerful figures.
They were not to be used like soldiers or normal warriors who charged valiantly to the enemy.
And this was truly the proper way to use assassins. Assassins were meant to be trump cards, not expendable warriors.
They were just like snipers. Being an elite sniper had so much value, and being an elite assassin also had so much value.
The Velaris and the assassins of the Shadowgrave Clan were elite assassins, the best of the best, this was undisputable.
But the Shadowgrave Clan wanted to reduce the traditional weakness of assassins. They wanted to retain the strengths of assassins while removing or reducing the traditional weaknesses.
In a situation where assassins had no choice but to battle the enemy on the war front. In a situation where the terrain and environment was not favourable to them.
Were they to complain?
Were they to run for their lives?
No
