You are lucky. The wagon train had not left yet and you were able to get a ride. After two hours on the road, you and the wagon train had gone approximately ten miles. Your back is sore from the rough road and your head aches from the clanking and banging of metal pots, pans, and scrap metal for the blacksmith shop. One of the soldiers sitting next to you in a wagon tells you that this is how all of the supplies that the fort needs are transported to the fort. You will probably be traveling to the fort for most of the day. You think to yourself that are heading into the heart of the middle of nowhere.

Forward March
