Tale Of Sarna The Shield Warrior First United Army

Yorktown / Haivershaw

Dole paced the room booms echoed around the city. Pouring some whisky General Clark, are our forces more Political than regulars? Swishing the whisky in his mouth, yes Mister President. We won't be surrendering any time soon. Besides, we still have that trump card.

Oh, the end as I call it, the bomb aboard the Roosevelt. That can only be set off by myself. When the time draws near. I'll move to the Roosevelt.
General our time till defeated. I know you already figured that in your head?

Yes, Mister President, maybe year top, I think more like six months. We'll be out of food and a means to fight. Slicing some meat, General we have time then to maybe, turn this to our favor. Oh, you must try this meat. Just look at the marbling in it. That female had plenty of fat. Shame she may not of looked fat. City Elder wasn't old either. I done her right before the butcher got her.

Yes, think I'll have some, Sir we can't win this. We are only killing them, hell I knew we probably couldn't win. When Savannah fell. Our Army has lost its soul, it's will. Why I don't know, we will fight till the last here Sir.

General for what good it may do, start impaling again. I want them afraid to come near us. A fear to build as they approach. Make them want to turn around. Go back to farming making bread. Whatever these people did! They will bend, or they'll face the true fear. Shame only one of those. Why I'd set the whole damn place a fire!

Yes, um Sir, thank you for the whisky and meat, I best get back. An Army to run an all. Yes, fine do that Clark. I'll have a bottle sent over. Good day.
Yes, good day to you. Dole smiled then took more meat, yes if I had five I'd set all five off. End this so not a person could live here.

Clark took a few breaths, damn he is a nut case. Thinks we can turn this around some way. None of us think we can win, only go down fighting is all. No wonder we are defeated. They wouldn't listen attack, attack. No get Sarna get her, they will stop. 
I was right, now how to lose but still win? That is the question.

Admiral Cook, our guests are arriving. Oh, fine Bell, just grand. Send them to your quarter's Captains mess. Is the food ready of course we must have a good whisky to offer them? Sir this is just a
figurehead leader, you really don't think she commands, do you? Bell have you not listened? She built this Army led them formed the attack plans. From my understanding fought in a few battles. She is no figurehead. No, Bell, a true leader. Sir the food is ready, cheese boiled eggs ham, potatoes. The whisky Bell, what kind? Spey side single malt. Good, Bell I'll head that way, you greet them. Yes Sir.

Ben said after you, my dear Sarna. Ben, you just want to look up my wrap, as I climb this ladder. Ben chuckled well, then I'll go first. No, look if you must smiling down at him. Busard laughed she has not a shy bone in her. Ben, nodded not one old friend. Ben pointed after you Admiral. Busard slapped Ben's shoulder, ya should gone ta sea Lad.
What grand times we'd had.

Bell saluted welcome aboard Elder Sarna, Busard good to see you, and this must be Ben. Welcome, I'm Captain Bell, if you'll follow me we'll go meet Admiral Cook. Sarna looked at Bell, such a large ship Sir. I'm pleased to meet you, Captain. Lead the way, Sir. Well, everyone, The Haivershaw is a battleship, she has um in inches about twelve inch main guns. As you can see they are quite large. Ben nodded our ships, couldn't stand a shot from those. Busard smiled only if I or Bill were in charge. Those guns have ta hit us first. First rule Ben, make yourself a small target. The three of us have debated that all the way here. Busard laughed and we still are Captain Bell.

Bell grabbed the door, after you all please. Admiral Cook. Elder Sarna and Ranger Ben. Cook held out his hand, Elder, so pleased to meet you. Sarna shook it, as am I Sir. Ben Stanson Sir, so pleased to meet you. Cook shook Bens' hand, please sit I have food whisky and coffee made sure we found that.
