Plutar & Dew
Dew
Hey Plutar, have you ever thought how a drought could turn a whole campaign on its head? I wonder what you’d do to keep your troops fed and hydrated if the river dries up.
Plutar
Sure. We’d locate a new source, set up cisterns, ration water, use dried grains for sustenance, adjust pace, keep morale by explaining necessity, and if needed, march to a reliable river. That's the plan.
Dew
Nice plan, but remember your march could dry out a valley or bruise a stream bed—nature’s balance matters, even in war. Keep an eye on the soil and moss, and your troops might learn to move like a gentle breeze.
Plutar
You're right, we’ll keep an eye on the land, change routes to avoid damage, and train the troops to move efficiently but lightly. Balance is part of the strategy.
Dew
Sounds like a solid plan—just keep the troops humming like bees, not buzzing too hard on the earth. Good luck, and may the soil stay green.
Plutar
Thanks. We’ll keep the march efficient, respect the land, and keep the troops steady.
