After everyone had rested for an hour and had a chance to get some water and what little food was rationed to them down, the soldiers and elite guards all met a short ways off.
Mollis had leveled out a decent little area to allow for the first part of the minotaur's training. Aster was patiently waiting with Stahl and the others for Captain Rix to begin.
They did not wait for long. The first hour was simple enough, just non-stop, physically demanding exercise drills. It was tiring, but anyone present could mostly handle it. In truth, it was just the bull getting a final feel for his recruits and their limitations.
It was shortly after that when the bull shifted to pairing off certain groups and giving them instruction. Stahl was placed at the head of one of the larger groups of five, training with swords.
