The plain-speaking, retired soldier had been telling old war stories and had impressed one point on his wide-eyed grandson: there is no replacement for training and superior weaponry.

Vast numbers of troops can substitutute, if the commanders are willing to suffer massive casualties -- but it is never a good strategy.

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out – because I was not a Socialist. Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out – because I was not a Trade Unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out – because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me – and there was no one left to speak for me.

It was a good thing that he had his short swords.  What was that old saying?  Blades never run out.

Twelve miles per hour over rought terrain is very fast for a human running speed. That's easily Olympic Marathon caliber running speed, or faster.

words were not just idle wind in The Land.  They had power.
Charles Daniel
Words hold more power in the real world than most people realize. The right words inspire emotion in others. The wrong words can cause mental and emtional pain. Words carry knowledge from one person to another. They preserve knowledge across generations. In written or other recorded forms, our words can reach our descendants hundreds, even thousands, of generation into the future.
