Kapitel 410: The Time Has Come

RETH

"Thank you for being willing to take this responsibility in the defense of your people—and in the defense of me. You humble me! You leave here this morning with my gratitude, my admiration, and my approval.

"In the hours and days to come, you will face combat. You will face hatred and ugliness. You will face death. You will make decisions and live or die by them. You will form memories—some of which you will wish you had never seen. But you will also walk into the gap and, when you returned, bloodied and weary, you will see the faces and hearts of those you fought to save.
