Laying a Siege
"Good, let's move out." As soon as Braun said that, the army began to march 150 kilometres to the west on a winding path. Except for a trail road made from human walking to and from, there's no proper road constructed between Tethereswest and Harlington. As such, the army movement is a bit slow and arduous.
The slow movement allowed for more conversation to form. While marching, they chatted amongst themselves about their village, their families and their dreams. The topic eventually lead to the land reward promised by the government.
"I hope the promised were true." said one of them. He, like others, joins the war because of the reward. To them, obtaining land is a way to turn their lives around. It's an opportunity to build a better future for their family and descendant.
