When they arrived at the town, Vivian and Ceph were welcomed by the sweat aroma of a thick meaty stew. Along with a mug of whatever drink they preferred. These were served in makeshift food stands at the front of town, right at the gate.
To the left of the food stands were the training fields and to the right, the resting area. With plenty of tents covering the grounds. It would be impossible for the town to accommodate all the soldiers. In the end, the town itself was remodeled for relaxation and healing. Only captains and above were able to lay claim on the inns or find a room among the villagers.
After getting their preferred drink and a bowl of stew, the two moved to their usual spot. There, Erik was already enjoying his meal. Noticing their arrival, he smiled and waved in greeting.
"How many were killed last night?" Vivian asked before taking her seat, concerned for those who died in the battle.
