The sun bleeds across the training yard, painting the gravel in long, sharp shadows. Dust swirls like gold in the dying light, where rows of new recruits stand at rigid attention.

The fourth bows courteously, a hint of a smile concealed beneath his mask. Your father, the Lieutenant General, gestures for you to step forward into their collective gaze. What do you make of them?
