Train Station Barkin, Fortuna
"Behemoth"
July 28, 1632

Hundreds of soldiers are seen arriving from their personal caravans to hopping on the train beside it, several officers were conversing with each other while smoking cigarette... boasting their wins if they won at all...

Several soldiers were also seen giving their loved ones their last goodbyes before the battle started, some even hugging and cuddling their pets one last time

Boxes upon boxes of ammunition, bolt-action rifles and machine guns were seen being hauled into the coaches of the train itself, while a bigger silhouette of a train is seen being tarped on to hide it's true purpose

It was a behemoth of a train that was donated by the Dwarven Empire as they were releasing "old stocks" of military equipments, Fortuna under Graendalt's reign of course gladly accepted it without hesitation

"Have you heard of what happened to Valsen?..." One of the Fortunian Commanders asked, "Yes, very unfortunate. From what the military higher ups could get, he was captured by the enemy..." The other answered solemnly

"I'm not surprised that he'll be chopped up into several pieces and be fed to their dogs" The commander said with disgust

Unknown to them, they were being watched just hovering a 1,000 feet above their heads by a small drone. Due to the loud train whistles, they couldn't the buzz of it overhead

"Holy...shit, it's like it came out of a museum photo" said by the drone operator. What they saw is like the reenactment of the Great War, trains carrying Men and supplies too far battlefields
