"Good news, team! We've got ourselves a promise to be posted somewhere a bit more exciting tomorrow," Cassian announced with a grin as he settled down by the campfire. Althea handed him a bowl of steaming chili along with a crusty piece of bread.
"Don't tell me we're getting posted near the third defensive line!" Robert asked, his eyes lighting up with excitement.
"She hasn't told us yet. We'll find out in the morning," Lumine said as she sat down next to Cassian, picking up her bowl of chili and bread with a small, content smile.
Althea settled down across from them, stretching her legs out toward the fire and tearing off a piece of her bread. "I hope we get something exciting," she said, her voice light but with an edge of anticipation. "It's been dead quiet for days now, and I'm getting sick of sitting around doing nothing."
