[Orc Fort Drill]

Orc Fort Drill

16th day of June.

Sergeant Keres lined us up at the barracks and prepared us for a training expedition to the orc fort where we would practice the basic commands of the army.



The sergeant began by explaining the single most important command in the army, the FORM command. With raw discipline anything can be achieved and any enemy can be conquered!



We then went on to practice other important commands such as the skirmish and charge command, while mowing down a handful of orcs in the process.



We dealt a decisive blow to the orcs by slaughtering their ready army and burning down the docks so that new supplies cannot be delivered to them.







All in all the training mission was a success, no one died.. well except the orcs.. 


According to the fast counting of Sergeant Keres, the gold we plundered from the orcs was precisely five thousund, eight hundred and thirty coins..

This quiet morning i went for a journey through the land and tailored majestic banners for all too see!

New Haven!







Britain!

After the march on Britain and witnessing the enormous numbers of the Yewish army, i decided to assemble a recruitment team to go to New Haven and try and make a small step towards becoming an even larger army.

Attendance:

Marcus
Hoagie
Abigail Keres
Rita Whalebiter
Kawon Snaels
Kal Shadowhand
Faden Wildheart


We set up a booth in the market square in New Haven where most of the people gather, there were a few bystanders but nothing impressive.. We set up two very nice banners in the center as well as a few scattered around town and i took my place in the center shouting to the public about the wonders of the Covian Army!

We had some interest from the public, expecially the vesperians that were there.. One of who challenged me to an insult duel, which i happened to win...

Before leaving we made sure that our message would be left behind by leaving behind a bunch of pamphlets, banners and the ringing sound in the ears of the public caused by my loud shouts...

All in all a good run! I'm sure we'll get a few new cruit's in the days to come!

["Good to see your still here commander.. " "I'm sorry about this Marcus, but we cannot let you leave the island.." "Put an end to his existance, and this entire dramatic charade.. "]

I saw my own doom crawling upon me.. It was a troubling sight, i was sat in the barracks with the captain and some others and all the sudden my very surroundings shifted.. I was in a different place, gold sand marble walls and red tapestry.. I was armored in gold ceremonial armor, i felt strong and important.. But then they entered..

"Good to see your still here commander.. "

"I'm sorry about this Marcus, but we cannot let you leave the island.."

"Put an end to his existance, and this entire dramatic charade.. "

They approached me, that she-devil and a group of armed guards.. Vile intentions in their eyes.. But then my world again shifted, and i found myself back in Cove..

I successfully found myself a willing mentor, Captain Hoagie Grayner..

["This isn't who you are!" "Leave him be, he has chosen his path!" "Don't trust them! They will stab you in the back!"]

M.V. i call myself, the strange initials that seem to follow me.. First i see them on my sash and then the guards saw it on the rusty badge they found on the ground where i woke up.. Sergeant Kerres insists that my name is "Marvin" but i do not think so.. I'll be M.V. until i regain more memories.. if that ever happens..

I like it here, Cove seems to be decent place and the army duties are to my liking.. So i wouldn't be surprised that even when i regain my memory that i decide to stick around..

I still hear the voices.. in my sleep and even as i am awake, i close my eyes only for a moment and see this wave of strange images and voices in my head.. they scare me, and Sergeant Kerres probably thinks i'm insane after my outburst in his line the other day... I hate this, i just want to remember. It will make it all so easier.. to adapt to my new surroundings.. In my sleep this night i heard different voices, different from the ones i hear usually..


"This isn't who you are!"

"Leave him be, he has chosen his path!"

"Don't trust them! They will stab you in the back!"


So strange, yet so familiar..

I decided my first task in the army should best be a simple one, and rat extermination didn't sound too tricky.. Especially as i teamed up with Watchman Thomas Aylmer in a hunt for these vile creatures..



We began by combing the shire but to no luck, seems either most of the rats migrated into the town or someone beat us to this duty...



After much searching and no rats we finally found our first prey, inside the town near the docks.. It was chewing on a discarded apple completely unaware of my blade descending on it from the sky..



We found others in the town as well and successfully exterminated them all..





We threw together a small pyre from some branches we found and safely converted the diseased vermin to ashes..



And of course, as the job was complete we made sure no diseases would be carried by us so we went skinny dipping in the nearest lake..




All in all a job well done i think, i won't go so far as to say we rid Cove of all rats but we damn sure made a dent in their swarm..

["Cut him loose here! We cannot continue to drag his pathetic body any longer!""But we can not leave him here! He will die!" "He is a liability now, toss him in the water and let the sea judge his soul.."]

The utter confusion is torment in my oblivious mind, there is nothing but darkness.. a black gaping void where my memory once was.. I sometimes hear them, the voices of my past.. but they are unclear and just build to my never ending confusion...

"Cut him loose here! We cannot continue to drag his pathetic body any longer!"

"But we can not leave him here! He will die!"

"He is a liability now, toss him in the water and let the sea judge his soul.."


I know nothing, i was awoken by a stranger who called the place i was in.. Cove.. I do not know this place, i do not know any place.. I can't even remember my own name..
