Ryan hopped down to the lower part of the stadium to meet with his five teammates in his little corner marked with the name 'Ryan Smith', the pseudonym Ryan had chosen.
He knew people from the Kheaweth Military would be here, so he wasn't stupid enough to put his full name on display.
"Hello, everyone," Ryan said, approaching the five recruits standing at attention.
"Commander," the five shouted as Ryan approached, doing various salutes.
Three of the warriors were phoenixes, one was a dragon in human form, and the last was a human.
Ryan waved his hand dismissively, and the five dropped their salutes.
"I'm glad you all told the truth," Ryan said, looking at the three phoenixes who were his first three picks.
Ryan then looked at the dragon and human. "And I'm glad you two are joining us as well."
All the warriors smiled as they had been enthralled by Ryan's pleasant face ability earlier.
