Why Am I Up Front?

With a single whistle, the Captain had his unit focused and ready to move.

Karl wasn't a premiere expert on the strength of other Elites, but if he had to guess, the only one close to Hawk would be the Captain, and the rest were all at the Awakened level. So, his team would be the heavy hitters for the squad while they were out on patrol, while they took care of the large numbers, like the Goblin Tribe that his last group had used Golems to eliminate.

Karl fell in at the front of the convoy, and the Captain gave him a curious look.

"I'm the front-line warrior, so I'm with you. Once we're away from the camp, I will send my Dragon Hawk out to scout, and it helps if I'm next to you to relay any findings he makes. From up there, he can see an entire patrol zone clearly and relay the best route to clear it." Karl explained.

"So, you're both a scout and a melee warrior?" The Captain asked.
