@aetherbled : curiosity » how long has it been since you’ve slept ? (arenvald!)
𝐢𝐡𝐬𝐚𝐧 𝐧𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐳𝐞𝐝 𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐚𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐚𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐛𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐤𝐥𝐲 at a man - carved rock in the distance until arenvald’s voice called out to him . a moment to himself became rare ———— an invaluable gift as everyone prepares for the siege . concern grips archer’s heart : for the people residing in the city , combatants who may not emerge alive , & those whose bones mixed with the salt - waters of the loch . mask gone , his expression visible / one of exhaustion as he turns slightly to regard a fellow ala mhigan . majority of people in this camp were foreigners , yet fight to drive garlemald out of this region . even lord hien from doma & aymeric of ishgard were present .
he wants to know what drove them to be here , but settles on this dialogue between soldiers . “ . . . days , ” ihsan utters ———— voice hoarse from lack of use , quiet to the point that one would have to lean in close to hear him . “ it’s near . ” further subjugation ; liberation . everything rests on the shoulders of those fighting today : another day will surely bring more anguish for all . he paused , adjusting the vambraces of his armor .
