[QUOTE="Shayuri, post: 6019296, member: 4936"] Once the wounded are in place, and she can do nothing more for them, Arcata finds her horse and gets back on its back. She trots over to where the soldiers of what was now a House remade...humble as it was...were gathering near Bastian and Brother Comoray. When she starts speaking, her words are musing, conversational...but with enough lung power to carry and be heard over mutters and murmurs. [COLOR="deepskyblue"]"A great man once said that there is no soil more sacred than that which you have bled on,"[/COLOR] she says, looking around and making eye contact with each man. [COLOR="deepskyblue"]"It forges a bond. Makes it more than just dirt you stand on."[/COLOR] She raises her voice a bit, now in full-fledged oratory mode.
