Gideon reached the barracks with ease and the handkerchief in his hand flapped happily as if it was congratulating him. A smile showed up on his face and he rubbed the soft cotton. He didn't know if Kaiden could hear him as well but he brought the handkerchief close to his mouth and whispered "Thank you". After that, he folded the cloth neatly before tucking it into his pocket and walking around.
There were several people sparring with each other while the others were practicing with their weapons. Gideon wondered why some still used swords, daggers, and bow and arrows. But he didn't think about it too much since he needs to look for his mom.
He saw this one guy in a cast, guiding some of the people in sword training. The Soldiers were trying to slice down what appears to be large stone dummies. Some were able to slice the dummies in half but the others fell backward from the vibrations of the sword.
