Bultom Dungeon City Outskirts
Bultom County
Cheverton Duchy
April 20th
Year 1052;
"Just how many soldiers have been assembled?"
"So far, they are already numbering over twelve thousand strong. And this is without the inclusion of the forces of the Churches and the adventurer's guilds."
Duke Charles Cheverton replied to Evan's question as the both of them rode on horseback at the front of the procession back towards Bultom.
Evan was looking at the large military camp that surrounded all of Bultom city, covering an area of dozens of kilometre squares, with the soldiers and knights who were moving around busily, momentarily stopping to salute the Duke before going back to their duties.
As the only person who was riding next to the Duke while everyone else trailed behind, Evan received more than just a few curious gazes from those who saw him.
