That arduous training stayed as their daily routine for a few months after their arrival. In that period, recruits kept coming from all over Northern Empire territory. Orphans number in the camp continuously grew from just sixteen of them into a few hundred which made Ethan and the other first recruits stunned at how crazy jammed their little barrack became in the last three months.
