 Two years had pssed since the war of the Phoenix and the Lion. In that time the fort's contruction was finished. Made not from the white stone Aaedan is so known for but whatever resources were near. the Fort's contruction was a five sided walled courtyard with a keep stationed on a small pleatues over looking Aaedan's northern forests and borders. From here the fort could supply troops to the northern and eastern borders. With the shaky alliance of the Lion and the Phoenix, both Aaedanian and Phoenix soldiers are stationed within the fort. Should hostilities once again take place between the nations a fight for the keep would surely ensue and the winner would hold an important strategic position. |

Galaar patrolled the newly built warcamp. "Get those walls up. Get those swords out of the mud. Where's the hitching post!"
Galaar was known to be especially hard on his soldiers. He was not loved by many, but his brutal efficiency made him an ideal commander.
"Captain," he cried out, "get me a report on our forces here, as soon as you can, I shall be in my tent." Galaar, with his hands behind his back, walked stoicly towards his temporary camp.

A legate entered Galaar's tent and saluted, hitting his chest with his fist. "Sir, We have 2000 men at our disposal and 20 Ballistae for defensive purpose. Roughly 200 of the men are Saboteurs working on the fort. The rest is divided quite evenly between Archers and Infantry. From this position we can react quickly to any attempts on the northern and eastern borders."

Galaar was busy reading and studying books about the region. The man entered the tent and saluted, and Galaar tossed his hand to acknowledge him, but never once looked away from his books.
"Hmph," his laugh was more of a grunt. "Ironic, no? Saboteurs building a fort? But I suppose they're the best ones for it. They know where a fort is the weakest, so they can make sure they keep it the strongest."
Galaar closed the book he was looking at, sliding it over to the corner of his desk, where one of his guardsmen picked it up and placed it on a nearby make-shift shelf. "I want the ballistae evenly placed along the walls and towers of the fort. Make sure they can oversee our perimeter - even our southern and western flank, in case of the enemy attempts to flank us. I'll have one of my subordinates organize our infantry and archers into patrols and have them patrolling the area around the fort daily and nightly for any threats. The king wants us to maintain at least 7/8's command here... but I want full command for now. Ensure every soldier is on duty."

"Sir!" The legate gave another salute and exited the tent. He Relayed the orders given and they were followed in short order. The many troops under Galaar's command would follow his commands without question. The patrols were established and the ballistae placed strategically along the walls under construction.
