Chapter 60: New home

                    The more they moved North, the more of the kids began to give up. On the first day, only the sons of nobles stayed on guard duty, but from the second day onward, all the others had to do it. Naturally, those kids had no experience of staying awake throughout the whole night, so in order not to fail, they didn't take turns and ended up skipping a night of sleep. Thanks to that, their focus wavered during the day, and they ended up injuring themselves. On the seventh day, around 200 kids had already given up.
