| Theresa: told ye lass, I aint Dracian. Where I'm from, this is professional.
Trajan slowly walks towards the legionary camp. Save for his slightly fancier sword, he looks near identical to the common soldiers now. | |

| "Tsk. Thengulli." She stares off at the horsemen for a long moment. Then speaks again. Her accent has shifted, less the flowing speech of the kelthrovi nobility, and more one of the plains dialects, harsher, and more guttural. "Then we find wine. Or whatever passes for it in the high places. And we talk frankly of how we shall fight." | |

| she leads her to a tent, back in the Excursor part of the camp, larger and a little fancier than the others. The dire wolf from before is lying down outside it, although it perks up upon seeing their approach | |

| Mord on the other hand stood out like a sore thumb, atop his aketon was first a layer of thick chainmail. Each ring was connected to a further 8 rings, and atop these were overlapping steel plates which had been fixed to the rings in much the same way. He would look like most of his men in battle, were it not for the dragon crest that stood atop his helmet, or the green cloak that hung from his shoulders. | |

| Theresa chuckles. She sits at a simple stool, gesturing for Yenn to do likewise at another
At Trajan's lead the group begins to walk through the legionary camp. After a little glancing around, the consul approaches one of the tests, its occupants sat around outside. One of them is playing on a Lyre and singing to the others. he has a surprisingly soft singing voice. "Et in illis agris et campi medio Ferro et igne in cordibus vestris, et ossa eorum.
Ad draco in faciem, atque terribili ferox sciebant quod essent quamquam certo mori" | |

| Theresa: well, usual call's pretty simple. Ya got Light infantry, Heavy Infantry, Light cav, Heavy cav, Archers. Add all o them t' the Heavyier infantry, crossbowmen n artillery o' the legions. Normal doctrine's they make up the center, we make up th' flanks. the Lancearios on the wings o the legionaries, Excursors either skirmishing or bein flank n rearguard to ward off cavalry n that. Gravis Equites Smash enemy infantry n cavalry then get out before they get bogged down, Levis Equites scout, harass, chase off missile units n that. Sagitarii...well they're archers, ya know what they do. Lets the legionaries n Lancearios do the bulk o the frontline fightin. | |

| Trajan does likewise. Once the song has finally quietened down, he pipes up. "Good to see you've been practising Fabius" The soldiers immediately stand up upon noticing Trajan. The singer, presumably Fabius, is grinning from ear to ear. Fabius: Aye sir! Reckon I'm getting decent at it now sir. Trajan: *smiles back* You've certainly improved. Keep it up and you could become a professional performer at this rate. Fabius: Wouldn't dream of it sir. Not while you and the lads are still out here riskin yourselves out here sir! | |

| one of the other soldiers, a slightly more gruff looking one, glances at Mord with a stern look. He's clearly a hard man, larger than Mordred in both height and bulk, with years of service written on his face in wrinkles and scars. When he speaks however, it soon becomes clear one of these scars takes the form of his front teeth being missing. "Who'th thith you've got with you thir?" | |
