Night Of Day 2

Julius, Yuri and his 5,000 men marched away from the still under construction fort.

The recently captured Greecian soldiers turned slaves had been told their work for the day was done, provided with hot food, and places to sleep.

Meanwhile the weary Romanus men forced their tired bones to march once more.

No real fight was expected however their king commanded the march.

These men needed to seize the enemy camp, the supplies within would greatly aid in their own war effort lest the men all starve in the pursuit.

As there was not much of a road to speak of the Legion marched in a double column formation the men treading the grassland their footfalls crunching the grass stained with dried blood.

The scent of iron was still present in the air even hours after the bodies had been cleared away and buried in a mass grave at the sight of the battle itself.
