              Sounds like a race from a fantasy series that does something with magical wooden swords which are for some reason better than regular metal swords.

                “Sire! The Theiyr"reian hoards have attacked the village of Peasantry. The Peasants, they fight back, Sire, but they will surely be overwhelmed. We expect a death toll in the millions, Sire.”

                “Dispatch ten knights to se- wait, ‘millions’? There’s only a few thousand people in that village.”

                “Yes, Sire, we included the Theiyr"reians in our estimates… there’s a lot of them but they fight with wooden swords, Sire.”

                “…”

                “They are an inefficient peoples, Sire.”
