After Day 1 of Marching

From: Mike

Subject: Re: The exodus

It's been a long day. So far, Garyth is holding up fine, but most of the group hasn't spent years in marching drills, strengthening their endurance. Signs of exhaustion are already obvious on many faces, and today is just the first day. Looking around, Garyth wonders if any of them will make it. He hastily shoves those thoughts down. There is no room for doubt in this; doubt kills. He goes to find Osred and Captain Bragga, to help coordinate the watch.

"We won't be able to stop as long as we'd like," he says to the Captain. "We have to keep moving in order to stay ahead of the enemy. We should move out at first light."

OOC: Garyth thinks there are enough guards for three watches, and he'll volunteer for the first. He'll be willing to go to four watches if Bragga thinks there are enough men for it.
