"Soldiers remember to take the ropes when in need a-," a man noticed me

"Good day, who might you be" he turned his head

"G- general yongsong" I stuttered clearing my throat

"Oh so you're the new general that the king has informed us about" he straightened his back

"Yes sir" I nodded

"Have you taken your training?" He glanced

"...no uhm... Sir I... Have come for training the... Uhm king has appointed me as a general" I looked down as I made up things in my head

"Strange, but alright anyways, you will be starting your training tomorrow, you can sit there for then while the batch leader comes and rehearses"

We all sat for a while, I just stared at everyone to see what was happening

I saw them all stand-up, so did I

I saw a tall standing man come in, he climbed the platform

"Dear soldiers, I see some of you that have come well trained and adequately built, I see a few new faces here can you all raise your sticks to show who of you are here for the first time?" He squinted his eyes

I raised my stick just like the few did

"Who are you?" He asked one of them

"Soldier junghoo of ye family" he answered

"And you" he pointed at me

"...general yongsong" I shook my head.

"General? What are you doing in the crowd come up here" he gestured

"You're general, ever gone to war before?" He spoke to me

"No, sire" I looked down

"Well then, you've come to train I think, stand in that row over there" he pointed and I walked off the platform

"We will be starting to train with the use of spears-" he went back to speaking to the crowd but got cut off

"His highness has arrived" a man walked in informing and clearing the way for the prince to come in as we all stepped aside

"How splendid your highness, have you been doing well?" He bowed

"Absolutely, I have come to see the camp, I will be practising at night" he left-turning away his horse

"Yes, so, back to where I was"
