Chapter 149: Star of Power and Status, Rigel.
I stood on the short wall, feeling tense, watching the southern horizon for the Rigel faction, while Darrow watched the east for the Mira faction.
Of the eleven squads that Oscar had strategically divided for defense and offense, the largest remained in the main hall, prepared to protect it in case any enemies infiltrated.
The remaining ten squads were distributed as follows: two at the western wall in case of an attack from that direction, four with me at the southern wall, and the rest with Darrow in the east.
As for Bram's squad, it was designated as a special unit, free to move as they saw fit, agreed upon by all.
After only a few minutes of being on the walls, I could already make out the silhouettes of dozens of attackers in the distance, running at a moderate pace.
Standing beside me on the wall were around twenty-five men, half of the forces I had for defending against the incoming attack.
