You awoke with a yawn, greeted by the familiar sound of nature and of course the distant conversations of fellow soldiers. In front of you sat Kaelius who has been quietly reading her novel which she clutched close, she noticed you were awake less than a second later.

"Oh, good morning Cassius." She calmly greeted you, shortly going back to reading her novel. There was nothing else to do at the moment in the foxhole you two have been sharing, besides having the heavy machine gun at the ready for whenever a Columban patrol wanders into view in this unremarkable forest amidst the Columban mountains. A new day awaits, hopefully your unit may get relieved from this forward post by the next company.
