After greeting the doctor, Shard took a carriage to the city across the lake. Each time he passed by the army camp near Crossroad Village, he observed different scenes. Today, under the sunset, he was surprised to find that more than half of the camp expansion was completed, and noticeably, there were more soldiers.
Continuing inward, Shard was further surprised to discover another small camp set up outside the passage leading towards Carsonrick.
"The Southerner's camp."
Captain Lades, who came over to greet Shard, said as they stood together under the sunset, watching soldiers busy on both sides of the camps.
Both camps had constructed simple towers from metal pipes and metal fastenings for high-altitude reconnaissance. Shard also noticed that inspections were required not only when leaving Draleon's side but also when entering Carsonrick's side.
"I remember the Carsonrickians' camp was a mile to the southeast?"
