| A Cynic Impressed
As the former Vordulian Marshal and his Black Guard crested the rain-soaked ridgeline, the city of Wudenkin finally came into view. Faint lights could be made out from the many nights watch lanterns that pockmark the winter-shrouded city. But it was not the city where Octavius' Corvin Castle stands that catches the young once-Marshal's eye, the ranks upon ranks of brightly coloured Ar Agyrian tents that flocked a neighbouring hillside that instead drew his sombrely inquisitive gaze. Impressive, he caught himself musing. And impressive indeed it is, for so many Ar Agyrian soldiers under a bevy of noble commanders to have rallied already in the realm's newest territorial acquirement; especially one which lies so many leagues away from any hope of a contiguous link to the realm. "A lesser man might almost be impressed," he remarked with turgidly feigned nonchalance to Captain Wolfhart who rode alongside the Marshal upon his jet black steed. A stern nod of the head and the dark figure, his Guardsmen, and horses began trudging across the sodden ridgeline; the soaked earth parting beneath hoof and boot alike every bit as drenched and tired as the men and beasts leaving their tracks in the clouded darkness of the unremarkable winter's night. | |
