"New Gardens of Bastios..." Rasmus looked at the big island in the distance where Arka and his fleet operated and protected the South Sea. "Quite a fancy name for a fortress," he leaned against the railing of the ship.
Rasmus was on his own because Aris wanted to do her own thing which was explore the city. He knew it would be best if he went to the fortress on his own because having her around would intimidate anyone.
"I couldn't believe it! We are going to be a part of the Marines! Especially that we are right under Sir Gullivard!" A newly recruited marine said with his eyes lit up and stared at the island. "My dream finally came true!" He laughed as he gripped the railing tightly.
"Yeah, me too! My parents are so proud of me and they were shedding tears when I left," another recruit said as he nodded and looked at headquarters.
