Morale Boosting

To My Dearest Ebbie,

I just came back from a warrior's assembly. Over a thousand warriors gathered in the Warriors' Quarter in the Port of Winds. I'm not really sure why Commander Evan summoned only male fighters, but something was up. Many Warriors, Knights, Myrmidons, and Paladins were standing there idly before Commander Evan began his speech. He said that morale amongst warriors was at an all-time low and they are looking for solutions to boost the overall job class morale.


Within moments, many people began to submit their ideas and thoughts to the commander. This was until the commander told everyone to be silent as he brought out this music box. He said that this song would raise overall morale, encourage warriors to fight harder, and most of all, instill pride in all of us as MEN. As he pressed the button, this song began to play. The first part wasn't really much, but the chorus really got us going and suddenly everyone broke into dance.

EVEN I STARTED TO DANCE SUBCONSCIOUSLY. And so did the other warriors gathered. I began singing the chorus, "WITH ALL THE STRENGTH OF A COURSING RIVER~ dadadadada GREAT TYPHOON~ dadadadadada RAGING FIRE~ MYSTERIOUS AS~ THE DARK SIDE OF..."

And then I held my breath along with the rest.

"THE MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
OOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN
NNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN!!!!!!!!!".

I needed a glass of water after that. Then Commander Evan explained about some sort of job class dance competition, and he wanted a thousand warriors to dance simultaneously to the song. The other job classes were doing it as well, and he hopes this will not only raise morale, but he also hopes it would beat the annual champions, the Jesters. I guess around 90% of the warriors objected, but we were all immediately snapped back into obedience as we were told it was an order.

It's not fair that you women warriors don't get to participate. Heck, why are the top brass even coming up with these events? Oh well, at least our song isn't as horrifying as the Jester's song for this year. Yet they manage to win every time! (It must be their outfits...) Their song still gives me the chills, seriously.

Stay safe, and I'll see you at that event.

From Your Dear Brother,
Prawnt
