Speech Text

The First General Marches out in front of the troops, standing on top of a supply wagon.

"Well ladies and gentlemen..even though some of you mers dress more like messes and messes dress more like Mers. It's time to earn our pay for the day..doesn't that money feel good right now. I have a very simple task for you. Get to the top of that gully..and win the day. See..easy isn't it. Their archers will be shooting down throughout..so you might feel a few stings. Hopefully Thaddia's group can negate some of them for us. Our airforce will sweep in behind the giant eagle..then help deal with the rest of the archers. When you get to the top of the slope you're going to give them a volley or two before advancing to attack them. Drive them into the ground.

Soldiers of the Republic. You have done all I have asked for you. We took Judano's Climb and we took Fort Triumph...and now we're going to go on to take Fort Zayes and then to Ellish.

Cease your slumbering, shake out your limbs for today you prepare for battle. Today we will show them what this Republic means to us, what our families mean to us and that they will never defeat us.

From here we can see their spearpoints gleaming..but soon they will be trodden into the ground beneath our boots as we leave them broken behind us and on to Ellish.

See their ugly faces streaming to this battlefield? They're the goats...they invaded us, they enslaved us, they continue to keep our citizens enslaved, to attack and burn...if we do not stop them now..we never will.

Stand ye steady, look to your right and left and remember your training. You will advance together, you will stand together and you will withdraw in good order together to sucker them into our trap.

From these hills rebounding now, let your battle cries be sounding. At the Republic's call was summoned the mighty force surrounding. Marvel at the might of our army...as the Goats fear it.

Soldiers of the Republic. On to glory, this is your chance to weave your story, to be part of the legends..and keep these words ever before you. Firans will not yield.

The battlecry is Republic, Unity and Lord Dyrsun!"
