By the maker, he did it! After careful inspection Doc figured out the Hunters were running on an automated program. Once we find the source of the signal and take it out, the Hunters will be nothing more than scrap metal. However, that will have to wait. Our short-term objective is finding way to jam the signal. Doc believes we can do it by fortifying Home Base with a short range EMP. That’ll leave us protected while we work on tracing the signal back to it’s source. It’s easier to attack one target than a thousand. I know with enough time, Doc will find it.

Sgt. Remus is gone. Something about his undergarments being on display in front of us, don’t know how that happened. Good riddance I say, he was mean. He was all about yelling at us and having us do push ups as opposed to real combat training with swords and punching. Unfortunately, our new trainer isn’t much better.

Crown Prince Sigurd of Nordhelm. The “Heir to the North” as the Queen likes to say. The Queen says he’s a brave refined, Prince whose kept his kingdom safe from the wild hordes. If you ask me he’s just an arrogant braggart.

He spent most of the session talking about his prowess then actually showing us anything. Then he randomly leg sweeped Clarisse, caught her, kissed her forehead and snorted about how she wasn’t prepared and he prevented her from cracking her head. Jerk.

He and his soldiers did help us with our stances, so it’s not a total loss. Still, I hope he sits on a bee’s nest. Maybe I can…

I love painting near where the soldiers train. Their movements are like a dance. I’ve learned so much about the human figure by observing and sketching . And I must admit, I do blush when one of them waves to me.

So, I was surprised this morning when King Phillip personally woke all of us and led us to the combat grounds. We were greeted by First Sgt. Remus, who told us today was our first day of “combat training.”

Zara was giddy, Penelope was aghast, and Artelia didn’t seem to care. King Phillip told us we needed to learn hand- to-hand combat in case we are kidnapped. Penelope spoke up that our songs we’re used for defense until Remus shouted, “what if you’re gagged?” then began calling us “maggots” and “yardbirds” and forced us to run laps. Such a cruel, corpulent, buzzard.

Zara asked when we were going to use the swords and he made her do 100 push-ups. After 20, I noticed Zara was humming a little tune toward the ground. When Remus attempted to scold he started twitching.

We giggled while he started trying to scratch through his armor. Then I saw an ant come out of one of the knee joints. He lost his wits and started removing his leg armor piece by piece. That’s when we saw a swarm of ants crawling all over his legs and up to his pelvis. He rushed to the lake while we laughed.

I know Zara did it, but I’m not going to say anything. I will say though, this experience has taught me much about form and muscle will surely help my drawing.”
