The Rare Snow Flakes

The now eight thousand plus strong force continued being embarked on a journey that seems to be covered in the mist of danger and mysteriousness like haze, which seems to be getting thicker and thicker every step they goes. Some Roman senator who followed this expedition could not control his fear after overhearing that conference, and out of pure stupidity and ignorance towards military knowledge, suggested that they should separate the entire army in to three components, with these 'outlanders that are not from Constantinople' to go first, so that if there are real danger ahead they would be ones to die first, and in exchange let the bulk of the troops retreat in peace.
