*sends a letter to army command*

[Jassi Cowin]

Jassi here, just requesting a temporary leave of absence from the army, it appears to be family problems and personal issues mostly and my dedication to the army is getting in the way  of such matters but once they are dealt with I will assure everyone that I will return..

Dear Regular Cowin,

The army is your family now. Your dedication to it does not "get in the way" of things.

You have two days to get your head right, after which you will be required to lead a hunt to the brigand fort and slay one bandit for every day absent.
