The whole situation can be described as follows: "the apple doesn't fall far from the apple tree."
He trained you in military affairs, raised you, trained you. And then he let you go to all four sides.
Naturally, you continued your military career, and becoming a lieutenant, you became practically the second Snyder.Not in the sense that you've become as icy, scary, and impregnable a wall as he is. It's just that your skill was quite comparable. However, the apple does not fall far from the apple tree.
And so, somewhere at a meeting of your staff officers, you met again. His cold gaze looked you up and down.
"Well? Coping?"- he asks, as dryly as ever. But you're used to it.You should not expect any greetings or eloquent words from him. After all, this is Snyder.
