[The Beastkin Republic] Will They Know Respite?

Varius leaned forward in the chair, lowering his head when the Beastkin growled at him. Out of respect and shame. Listening to Nakamura he'd remain silent. Till he heard Nakamura request questions, Varius softly raised his head up. "Sir Nakamura, if I may? If they are using tactics an idea would be a pincer maneuver, and getting on their flank as much as possible. Cutting out a chunk of the horde through herding them could give us an advantage. If we cut off their gathering regions, it would lower their numbers in populated locations, this would increase our odds of being surrounded but this would give people time to survive. We could also locate tighter alleyways and roads that would make the horde more manageable. This is your home turf, it's your call of course." Varius' voice was calm, yet firm, his eyes met with the Shogun's but he remained hunched and small, Knowing who the leader was.

"With that in mind, where are we to be positioned Sir Nakamura?" Varius asked, calmly assessing their surroundings at the chaos that's still going.

When the carriage slowed to a stop, Varius stepped out. His steps land with a thud as the soul beneath would settle around his sandals. Varius looked amongst the other volunteers being one of them to come along for access to the Republic but also to lose his ties to where he comes from, his armor Eastern make with old military insignias horribly and deliberately scratched up. Varius looked towards the village. “So the undead decided to rise again, probably by someone’s call?” Varius asked curiously as his eyes scanned the surroundings, of the village. “Nan Gau… is where she hailed from.” Varius whispered to himself as he sighed with a shudder of past sadness. Flashes of his duel flashing in his mind, the betrayal he felt, in himself and his own people he fought for. He hated them, and wanted a new home. His stature changed as he moved from the carriage. As he’d glance back at the others. “I am Varius Interitus… I am a former Militant of the Eastern Empire. I am here to provide aid as long as I am allowed. I wish to show I’m a Lion from a herd of sheep.”

Varius nodded as he's stand on guard amongst the others his hand resting on his gladius "Just relax and walk with purpose. Don't give anyone a reason to try and come up on you. Most people here would rather skin a rat than mess with you. Just don't show weakness and it'll be alright" Varius continues on, his eyes facing forward as his battle skirt softly shifted with each step he took.

It was a calm walk at least for Varius, watching the foliage move with the winds as he walked with those around him now. "Yeah, here to see them seemed like an urgent meeting. " Varius commented as he looked amongst the other people on the side of the city, his sandals softly click with each step.
