Forest Clearance Mission 6

Laying waste to yet another group of soldiers occupying a medium-sized village, Damian and his unit set up camp nearby for the day. They were in no rush, and once a week, they took a day off to maintain their weapons, armor, and have some rest. Finding a village on such days was always fortunate. They waited for all the captains to catch up in an arc as they moved forward. Such a large group, combined with their thorough search of every nook and cranny of the forest, took time. This was necessary, though. The worst mistake they could make was to overlook a hiding place, allowing enemies to slip past them, rendering their efforts futile.

Damian didn't know how the war was progressing or whether Vidalia and the others had survived. However, there was no way to contact them, and regardless of the outcome, their mission to clear the way to Pyron remained unchanged.
