Preparations For War

Preparations For War is the seventh chapter of Tales of Sheol'gotha:  Shadow of the Abaddon.

Synopsis
During the conversation between Valon and Sharess, Haebin is below in the mass of soldiers preparing to leave. Wandering to and fro, he despairs at how poorly prepared they are for leaving, and is soon joined by Palus who shares his concerns. They simultaneously lament the state of the legion and the situation by which they are leaving, but recognize there is too much danger in staying and so even the token force they have at the moment is better then risking another day.

Palus is relieved to hear that all the commanders he'd asked for were present and willing to leave, and assigns Haebin to the duty of pulling together a group of elite warriors rather than heading the infantry, which Haebin accepts with almost eagerness. As they prepare to march they join the other commanders who voice their disdain for Gadden and resentment over being watched. They admit that they are equally as nervous, but without prior planning much of their campaign will be playing by ear. No caravans are expected to support them, but they are all equally devoted to getting Valon away, though their personal intents and reasoning are not made clear.
