CCCLXXXVI. The Harshness
Dag's words were a clear reference to Kjell's mistake, who exchanged glances with some of the soldiers, who looked at him out of the corner of their eyes, trying not to be noticed.
"And to protect you, I need you to adapt to my rules, to follow my orders. Only in this way will you make my life easy and the exploratory mission to the North of Krypstorm can continue.

A young man and a Shieldmaiden in her thirties came forward, passing the front rows and stopping in front of their Warchief.
"Do you want to make the deaths of your comrades vane?!" he replied, still in a stern tone, similar to the one he had used earlier with Kjell.
"No, sir..." both of them answered, with a thread of voice and their eyes turned downwards.
