Chrysalis

Chapter 1173

They want me to talk to the generals now. Of course they do. I should NEVER have agreed to do this. What are the generals even going to get from this? You’re soldiers, you’re smart, you know what it’s all about.

My intention was for the generals to lead from the front. A big body that could provide auras, leadership, directions and strategy from the thick of the action. I probably shouldn’t have called you generals, to be honest; captains is probably closer to what I envisioned, but eh, it doesn’t matter now.

What does matter, is that you keep doing what you’re doing. I’ve never met or seen a general who wasn’t doing everything they possibly could to lead their siblings to the best of their ability. You can’t be perfect, I don’t expect it and you shouldn’t either. Just do your best. We’re all proud of you.
