The voice that cut through the tension belonged to Logan, who had hastened from the conference hall.
"Greetings Chief!" At his arrival, everyone snapped to attention with crisp salutes.
"Master Chief, how does one wield this? When riding a warg, this spear seems less effective than a wolf scimitar." Cardia, stepping forward, swished the spear through the air, struggling to find its proper technique.
Crowe, Lotts, and the others converged around Logan, eager for insight.
Given their military experience, they reasoned that the weapon might better serve the infantry rather than the cavalry.
"See that wooden stake out there?" Logan asked, taking the spear from Cardia with a firm grip and pointing toward a distant target on the training ground.
All eyes followed his gesture, affirming the sighting of the stake some two hundred meters away.
Then, with an effortless flick of his wrist, Logan launched the spear. It soared, tracing a swift, flawless arc through the air.
