The Sage of Einar

Aiken, who was already formed in front of Einar, only swallowed a bit of saliva, as he did not know what kind of training he could receive.

Einar, who was already standing on the platform, looked at the slaves with a smile "I am glad that everyone has carried out the orders I have given to you.

But now comes the most important thing, all of you must meet in groups of 10 people which will be made up of your fellow barracks who have chosen to spend your stay.

Once you have made the teams, I want each of you to choose a leader and a sub-leader. You must remember that leaders will have an obligation to speak for you and take responsibility for their actions.

This selection will only be temporary until the end of the two-month training, then I will choose based on the statistics and results of a leader and a sub-leader for each group of you.

Now start to organize yourself and choose your leaders. When you have finished just line up and place your leader and sub-leader in front of you. "

When he finished speaking quickly, the slaves began to organize themselves with the directions that Einar had given.

Aiken quickly followed the people he had seen enter his bunkhouse, though to his surprise he realized that among those there was Drew.

Who without wasting time began to organize everyone in the best way he could because he did not want to be one of the last groups to form.

Aiken, seeing this, raised his hand and looked at his teammates "I propose that Drew be the leader of our group since he seems to have enough quality to be a good leader.

Not to mention, he's showing us with facts that he can organize us."

All the members of Aiken's group thought for a few moments and decided to unanimously elect him as the leader.

Drew, who had been chosen, just scratched his chin and put his hand on Aiken's shoulder "Since I was chosen as the leader I would like to suggest Aiken as my sub-leader, because he is just as hardworking as I am and I feel like we could be a good team."

All his teammates, having no better options and having limited time, ended up accepting Drew's proposal, so that with their two elected leaders, they all lined up.

Einar, seeing that all the slaves were already ordered, and with their respective leaders, a satisfied smile formed on his face.

'They have a good hand to choose their leaders. Of all teams, I have to admit that the second team was the one that made the best decision.

That young man was the organizer of the meal, while his partner had the ability to offer his help without being forced or told by anyone.

They both have determination. I hope they can keep it up because if they can keep up… '

Einar just sighed and started walking towards the first group. When he arrived, he pointed to them "From this moment on, you will all be the Alpha team.

I also want you to remember these words well because if I hear you fail to say them, you will be punished. Your leader will be called a lieutenant and your sub-leader will be called a sergeant.

Every time your lieutenant or sergeant gives you an order, you will respond.

Yes sir, when you are affirming.

No sir, when you are denying.

I do not want to hear you say any other words or excuses; you accept it or you do not, but you will not be able to answer anything else.

Also, in your free time, they should continue to tell their leaders with their names and their rank. "

Einar pointed to the Alpha team leader, "What's your name Lieutenant?"

The Alpha team leader looked seriously at Einar. "My name is Wally, Herald Einar."

Einar then pointed out to the Alpha team, "You are always going to address their lieutenant this way, Lieutenant Wally.

In the same way they will speak to their sergeant, you must not forget the rank of your leaders have because if you do, you will be punished by them ... "

Einar walked and stood in front of Wally "Your duty as lieutenant is to maintain order Wally, you must enforce the rules and order in your team.

If they do something wrong, you and your sergeant will be punished. You have the authority to do punishments, as to what kind of punishments you can do. "

Einar turned his head and looked at all the team leaders "When the training is over I will give you some sheets containing the rules and penalties.

You will have to learn the content that is in those sheets, for this you will be training all night if necessary until you learn the rules by heart.

If you don't do it today, you will be punished and will have to work on training while repeating them out loud.

Those rules will be your creed and your guide to know how to act, for the greatest punishments you will have to inform me.

Also, as lieutenants and sergeants, you will have the obligation to make reports every day on the behavior of the members of your group.

All these reports must be reported at night in front of Angus who will be in charge of transcribing each of their words until they learn to write and read.

It is clear slaves! "

All the slaves shouted in unison, "Yes, herald Einar."

Einar nodded and walked to the next team, where Drew and Aiken were a bit nervous because they didn't know what the herald would do.

When Einar arrived in front of Drew's team, he gave everyone a quick look and pointed out, "You will be the Beta team. I expect great things from all of you.

So they may have to have more work, this so they can develop as true leaders and functional members of the tribe.

This training will be complicated and maybe sometimes you will wish to be with your mothers but here in this place you will stop being child slaves and will become the first soldiers of the tribe.

Unlike a warrior who fights for honor and a place in Valhalla, a soldier fights to protect his family and his nation.

In the next few days, I will show you the flag that represents all of us. As a national symbol it should be treated with respect because it represents our ideals.

For foreigners and strangers it may seem like just a piece of cloth, but for you it will be the representation of what you have to take care of.

The flag will be your guide, and therefore you must take care of it and protect it.

It is clear slaves! "

The entire Beta team responded in unison, "Yes, Herald Einar."

Einar nodded and started to walk towards the next team. When he saw them, he realized that they were all looking at him quite curiously.

'Interesting…'

Pointing at them, Einar frowned "You all have a look full of curiosity, which is quite surprising, as you will be thinking about what kind of things I am going to say to you.

Unfortunately for all of you, you will have to suffer a little like the Beta team, but unlike them you will have to work twice as hard to learn to read and write.

Your looks have just condemned you to have to be the team that will have to be in charge of intelligence throughout the training.

Your mission in the future will be just as important as that of everyone in this place, but it will have a more complex value because you will be the contact between the chain of command and the soldiers.

From now on you are the Gamma team.

It is clear slaves! "

The entire Gamma team responded in unison, "Yes, Herald Einar."

Einar then began to walk to a midpoint where the two teams that were yet to be named could see him without problems.

"All of you are the only ones still to be named, but I want you to know that not because you are the last will have to do less work than the Beta and Gamma team.

To begin with, you two will have to work this week on the construction of the real barracks. This will mean that you will finish your training early.

But you will have to work all afternoon until late at night to be able to advance the construction. You will have to do it for two weeks.

Before the other teams take over from their activities, but let's start by naming their teams.

The team on the right will be Team Delta and the team on the left will be Team Epsilon.

I hope you remember your names very well because I already have your faces engraved on me and if you make a mistake in saying the name of your team, you will be punished.

It understood slaves! "

Team Delta and Epsilon replied at the same time "Yes, Herald Einar."

Einar nodded and began to walk towards the platform. When he arrived, he placed himself in a strange position in which his back was straight and his feet together.

"From this moment on, you should remember this position as if it were something natural for you, because whenever I am present you must stand in this way.

Unless I give the order to rest, you will not change your position, but if you ask for the position, it is called firm. "

Spreading his legs and placing his hands on the sides he looked seriously at the team "This position is for rest, they should remember it because if someone makes a mistake they will be punished."

Placing his feet together and making a military salute with his hand on his forehead, Einar looked at the slaves "This is a military salute, whenever they see a lieutenant, a sergeant or me.

You will have to do it until we are far enough away. When a sergeant speaks to you, you will have to do it. If the lieutenant speaks to the sergeant, the sergeant will have to do it.

If I speak to any lieutenant, you will have to do the military salute. These three movements will have to be learned, so now it only remains to teach them how they should be arranged in rows.

Beta team comes forward as you will be in charge of giving this demonstration. "
