Age of Man: Return of The Ancients

Malak had just barely ordered a guard to fetch Elizabeth when Astiroth spoke up. He quickly turned to face the young wolf and give him an audience. "Your one of Arthur's boys right?" He started before answering the questions. "Well I hope my boy isn't to much a pain. But as for a river, there are a few streams that run through the forest, but none close enough to send men out to unless we need drinking water. If I'm correct this is your first real field posting isn't it? you were normally stationed in towns and used for negotiations and the like. Well out here bathing is a rare treat, so you will have to live in your own stink for a while. At least until we push the Orcs back enough so we can set up camp near a stream." He said answered the question. When Astiroth offered the coat Malak gave a grin. "Indeed Old Garnet left a big shadow to live up to, but I think there were plenty who were glad when he passed on. As for your Coat, I respect the offer, but I don't wear the pelt of a beast unless I kill it myself. It will make a fine trophy, or gift for one of the cute little things in your unit. So keep it for yourself and use it how you see fit my boy" He said his grin getting bigger as he hinted it as a gift. By now Elizabeth burst into the Command tent. "Malak, this better be some sort of sick joke" she growled. The grin that had been on Commander Garskull's face instantly disappeared. "Sadly, no this isn't a joke, Arthur's squad reported that just before a scout they killed died he mentioned a chieftain. These Orcs may be more organized than we originally thought." The big man answered her, "I'm sorry son, but I am going to have to ask you to leave now, we have some plans to change." He said to Astiroth giving the boy a chance to leave before Elizabeth bit his head off.

"I hear that you are my man" Arthur said looking at the man towering over him. With the man standing Arthur did a quick look over, other men might have been intimidated by the man's size alone, but Arthur had grown up with this and it would require a little more than size to intimidate him. "You know, Ill take you as is for now, you look like you have been through quite a lot, and to go through your Pedigree might take quite a while. But I am sure you and My father could trade stories for quite a while over ale some night." Arthur said to North with a small grin. "So North welcome to the team, you will meet everyone else in a bit as we are all going to meet at the sparing field for a bit of training. We are meeting up in about half an hour, so have some more fun with these boys and meet us their. Unless you would like me to take you around camp?" Arthur offered North although he wasn't really in the mood to give a tour and would much prefer to join in on the jokes and stories around camp.

Gabriel got himself ready and was just finishing getting changed when Paul started to speak to him. "Yep I'm still here, it will take a bit more than that to get rid of me." He said to the pilot. "As for the girl, it is a sad thing to hear. It only moves to prove the fact that Children shouldn't be given weapons of mass destruction and sent to war. No offence meant, I was one of those children so long ago. As for this Gato, if he is as experienced as you say, we should keep an eye out in the future. If we can afford it, I would suggest that our aces stick in pairs. I could see a few of the less experienced ones being picked off if faced up against a vet." Gabriel offered his advice, his tone was sympathetic about the girls death, but at the same time cold from seeing it so many times before. Loosing men is part of battle, and although we might not agree with the reasons its our job to follow orders. They were soldiers and knew the risk heading into battle, but as we move forward we carry their dreams along with us. Your men will live on through you." Gabriel said trying to help the young pilot through the loss. "I don't mind listening, better complain to me then your men. You hold influence here, and talk like that could easily effect moral. At times like this you need to stand together united and strong. If you ever need it Ill listen." he said with a grin. "Well thanks kid, I'll be sure to continue to pull my weight around here. As long as I can support and protect your men I will be doing my job" Gabriel stated after Paul's compliment, walking with the young pilot to the debriefing.

Soooo where did everyone go?

Gabriel stayed with Sigma team on route to the Sundown once they arrived Gabriel Docked the GX and exited his suit to inspect just how much damage it had sustained. It's right arm had been blown off at the Elbow, but repairable as long as the salvage teams were able to recover the rest of his arm. What was left of his shield was far beyond repair, but the metal could be used as scrap to make repairs with. And then there was minor damage caused by the enemy Zaku units. With any luck he would be able to procure a shield from the other scrap that was brought in. For the moment Grbriel's suit was still functional, but he would be forced to play a support role until he had use of both arms. "I wish I had a damn bit right now.... Those things make for great spare parts in times like this.." He thought to himself as he spoke with the mechanic who had been assigned to help him with his suit. Once they had worked out a plan for repairs Gabriel went to go change and then made his way to the debriefing area wondering how this was going to go.

So I got a post up, your still on your own for a little bit but then we have a little bit of practicing!

Arthur gave a small laugh at Decado's first comment. "Well, I don't exactly think that would work out to well. But given different circumstances that could be fun." He added in a joking tone. "As for guidance I would agree about that, but I think I do have an idea to work with that." He said while coming up with a plan. The next few hours seemed to pass quickly and the group quickly made their way back to camp. Once they group made it back to camp Arthur turned back to the rest of the group. "Good work today everyone, but were not done yet. You have the next hour to yourselves, get some rest, eat, or whatever, but after that meet me at the sparring field. Until then you are all dismissed." He said before turning and making his way to the command tent to report everything that happened.

Malak sat on his bed with a mug of ale in hand taking a drink, having more than his fill talk of strategy and tactics for the day before Arthur entered the tent. But the commander did give a small sigh of relief when Arthur entered the tent, but the relief quickly passed as soon as he saw the look on Arthur's face. "I'm guessing you have some bad news? Well lets here it then." He said sitting forward to listen to the report. Arthur told his father about the Orc Hunters, Rafa's blind attack which lead to his death, and the worst news of all, The Orc Chieftain. When Arthur was done with his report Malak took a drink of his ale, "Well my boy, first I shall congratulate you on your first victory as a Captain, As for Rafa I don't think there is much you could of done. I had hopped that he would of been a valuable Wolf, but recklessness can kill more than just yourself. Now the disturbing part is this Bloodfang you spoke of. If these Orcs are actually organized then this battle just got much harder. But that is my problem to deal with you seem to have quite a few of your own." He said before standing. "Well Arthur, I will let you go you did well today, I expect you to keep up the good work." Malak stated as he walked over to the map of the area. Arthur started to give a solute but Malak started talking again before Arthur could, "Ohh and to replace Rafa I shall give you a new man, The name he gave me was North and he can be found with Old Yohn so go introduce yourself." Arthur nodded, "I will get right to that sir, best of luck Father, Ill be at your service if you require me." He said before turning to leave the tent. As he left Malak called in a guard to get Elizabeth but Arthur didn't stay to talk with the strategist. After leaving the Command tent Arthur made his way to Yohn's squad to meet his new member.

As Arthur made his way to Yohn's squad he could hear the laughs of the men and he could instantly see the new member of his team as he walked over. "Yohn, they need to make you a full time recruiter, looks like you brought me a beast." Arthur said as he walked up. As soon as North looked up Arthur gave a grin. "Arthur Garskull at your service."
