"Stock the Battle of Divine Will" Roland pronounced the words slowly
Other than attracting irants to Graycastle, the other reason he forced local officials to pro to deters Since Roland was born in peacetied war, he could only make war preparations based on what he had learned from histories
The worst scenario Roland could think of was that the population reduced by 30 and that all young, abled ones went to war, leaving wo in the plant to provide supplies to the front In that case, the farmland would be very likely deserted If, however, they had food excess that could last two to three years, they ht be able to survive the s turned better

After the conference, Wendy brought Roland a piece of news
The witches ere exploring the snow ion had safely docked at Neverwinter
When Roland arrived at the wharf, someone dashed to him and threw herself into his arnated with the scent that Roland was so faale whispered in his ear
