A stone parapet at the top of the castle, the royal tower is what makes this castle a fortress. The walls are stone and dinged with souvenirs of past battles. It is cold and gray, but the perfect vantage point for soldiers. The wind whistles through the cracks in the wall. Straw litters the floor.

I am a general. I lead the kingdom's forces into battle. I am gifted in strategy and foresight.
Now is the time to push on and retake our lost territory to the North. Command the third battalion to do so.  The third battalion has taken on heavy losses.  They need some time to recoup and enlist local peasants to take on several soldier roles. Peasants wont suffice, they have no fighting experience. Whats the status of General Curtis and his second battalion?  General Curtis has been enjoying his victory.  They had minimal losses, primarily due to General Creech's sacrifices. Then have him lead the counter attack in the North. We must not let the enemy rest and replenish their forces! Yes sir!  Do you have any specific strategy that you would like me to pass along?  The river up North is quite dangerous. I agree, there may still be enemy laying in ambush by the Lake. Have them circle Mount Hugerock instead. It will take more time but I must ensure the troops safety.  Yes sir.  Half circling East and the other circling West?  Or shall the First battalion go West? I might need counsel on that. Going west will take several days but circling East leads us straight to the enemy barracks...  Shall I gather all of the Generals for a strategy meeting?  The wench can set up the dinning hall for it. Yes, be on it. Lets meet in the war room instead. Food can be quite distracting when it comes to strategizing...  Ah yes, of course Sir.  I shall gather the maps and a few cooperative locals who know the land well.
