[QUOTE="Dr Simon, post: 5270559, member: 21938"] [b]In The Army Now[/b] Shortly after dawn Captain Steiglistz gathers his men and his new recruits. Dew glistens on the leftovers of the wedding party as the captain inspects his men with a self-satisfied smirk on his face. This drops when he meets the Professor's eye, and he turns away muttering. There is no sign of Gilda and Ferd; the young bride had agreed solemnly to her old teacher's advice the previous night. Gruffle knew that the young couple would do what they could. As the column moves out, Targas walks with the infantry, amongst the other new recruits, his bearing displays his experience over the raw conscripts. The others ride in the wagon, out of deference to size or age, although Seelia is quite capable of keeping up on the wing. As the day continues, the rising sun burns off the dew and the morning chill, turning into the yellow heat of a summer noon. Along the dusty road, more troops join the column; other recruiters who have been to the smaller villages. A few men here, a few there, until by late afternoon there are probably an extra hundred or so souls being dragged off to fight for Rosen County. As the day turns into balmy gloaming, the recruits arrive at camp, first seen spread out on a mead below a slight rise in the road. A vast sea of white canvas, now lit by cooking fires. Even at this distance, Zephyr's whiskers twitch as his attuned senses tell him of hurt to The Green. Passing into camp, it becomes clear to the lynx that it isn't the presence of the soldiers that is the problem. At every brigade tent there are men propped up, groaning. Not wounded. A sickness is sweeping the camp. As Captain Stieglitz distributes his new recruits he turns to the four strangest (you). [COLOR="Blue"]"You, mercenaries, you'd better come with me to see the General before you turn in. He'll want to know what you can do."[/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
