Vol 3 Chapter 8 (2/2)
East Fortress Base Commander: “From here to the centre it’s all shallow marshland The speed of cavalry is sharply reduced and control is difficult The Demons of the Pale launched repeated assaults fro the centre with her units, and I can see that they’re all excellent soldiers but their fatigue is evident It won’t be long before they break”
The Deo?”
The Silver Tiger Lord: “Of course We are the eight thousand strong warriors of the Fang, we live in the wilds of the mountains! This marsh is no obstacle for those who are not weak!”
The De: “All soldiers are to wear crimson red for identification”
The Silver Tiger Lord: “All preparations have been concluded”
The De: “Then you are to advance upon the Plains of Scilla at top speed! The Silver Tiger Lord is to take his entire force and envelope the flank of the Army of the Pale! Do not hold back, turn the tides of this battle!”
The Silver Tiger Lord: “Understood!”
The Silver Tiger Lord: “Proud warriors of the Fang! Hear the orders of the De down upon them like a fell wind, tear them to pieces! Follow me!”
