[QUOTE="Thomas Hobbes, post: 1281399, member: 8623"] Octar lays still as he listens to Brioc, nodding imperceptibly, but jerks up at the last. He stares as Brioc, blinks once, and lets out a short, barking laugh. "I've not given many orders, Brioc. And all in drills. Truth be told, this' been my first taste of fighting, other than bandits." Octar begins to get more animated. "But for starters, you've got to assert yourself more. If you're going to be in charge, be in charge. Soldiers follow good orders, and they stay alive. If they don't follow orders, it doesn't matter if they were good or not, they get killed." He takes another swig of ale. "That arguing in the cave could've gotten us killed, if the Wendol had been a mind to it." Octar pauses a moment, and then laughs again. "Hah! Your better at this then you think." Brioc motions the serving girl. "More ale, please!" he says, although his spirits are apparently working their way upwards. [/QUOTE]
