After asking around, Zaos finally found the commander's office. Still, in the end, he hesitated in knocking on the door since he was thinking about what he heard. Zaos already knew the kingdom wasn't that peaceful, but he didn't imagine they had problems with invaders or bandits. He had never heard rumors about that, after all.
"We are stationed in the middle of nowhere for a reason…" Zaos thought. "I made some wrong assumptions just because my father didn't have to leave the capital often."
Zaos had no idea if he was ready or if he was strong enough to fight and kill criminals or invaders, so in the end, he could only hope that he won't have to fight for his life anytime soon. Still, if the time comes sooner than expected, he will have to make up his mind.
