Chapter 15 - Cowardice

by

fgunner.jpgI have said before that I do not like the fact that the Cormans will not fight with us. That is not to say they aren’t helping us in some way or other, but when I see men and women on the front lines fighting a war that we know will be the end for most of us, and they just sit back and ask for our protection, well, I guess I get a bit annoyed by that.

I encountered something worse today. Though this does not speak for all of them I met a certain Forean today who I shall not name, because he does not deserve to have it uttered. He left with a group of Foreans to hold off the Bane threat near the Fithik trench. That’s what I was told anyway, as it was my duty to bring this group back to base. They wouldn’t leave without him and he had run off into some cave or other. Fine, time to go drag his carcass, or whatever may be left of it, out of the cave so they can see that he is good and dead.

You’ll have to excuse the crass attitude there but really sometimes it is best just to accept that the inevitable has happened and move on rather than, you know, waste everyone’s time…but I may be getting ahead of myself in complaints.

I’m not a big fan of Fithik. Up until now I had encountered relatively few of them, but here, especially I have encountered more than my fair share. There were dozens in the cave and no signs of a body as I kept getting deeper and deeper inside. Finally after winding my way through the tunnels I found him. He was not dead, he was alive and basically unharmed, hiding in a crevice cut out of the cave wall.

My first assumption was that he couldn’t make it out with all the Fithik around and I would have to help him out. I’d cleared the way pretty well so I didn’t think this would be a problem. That is, until I found out he didn’t want to leave.

He asked me to go back to the group he had left and tell them he was dead, that he died honorably, fighting. I didn’t. I told them of his cowardice. I told them that he was too scared to fight and wished to remain in hiding.

I have no sympathy for him. If you don’t want to fight fine, I certainly can’t make you, but to hide away in a corner making everyone believe you are dead. Well, that’s the lowest thing I can think of doing.

This is no time for hiding, everyone, fighter or not, can find some way to help out in this war. If you aren’t going to help, you might as well just join up with the Bane because it is about equivalent anyway.
