On with the tasks for the day

Between Fay demanding a few more minutes of sleep, Selene taking her time silently judging and making fun of us, and then Etaria whose question never seemed to end, by the time I finally managed to get going with my tasks for the day, I was more than an hour late. 

Thankfully, contrary to the mercenary supervisors on the site, planners at the headquarters, or even the quart's leaders who were the last link within the chain of communication, my presence wasn't necessary for the work to progress. 

Contrary to the quart's leaders, I wasn't there to give direct orders to the men. Contrary to the brigade officer, I didn't need to manage a whole group of hundred men while on the task. Unlike the mercenary supervisors, I didn't need to act as the link that connected the management at the headquarters with the brigade officers, passing over the tasks each brigade was to complete. 

No.
