<span class="mu-s">GREEN BATTERY, 21ST LEGION</span>
>The train traveled overnight, stopping once in the middle of the night to recoal. The young men ended up sleeping on the trains, though as there were no beds or hammocks, most just slept where they sat, and as there was not enough seats, others had to sleep on the floor in their scarlet uniforms. It was the sort of sight that the Nation did not wish for Imperial citizens to see. After a total of 820 miles/1300 kilometers over the course of over 14 hours, with only only a few awake, the rest woke when barked at by their fellow Nationals outside, ordering the young men onboard to stop with their shameful displays and muster on the platform. The young men snapped awake and began daisy chaining their luggage out from the storage cabin and only once all the luggage was disembarked were they allowed to locate and collect them.<span class="mu-i">"Welcome to Japmi, little brothers. You're men of the 21st now."</span>
>Japmi was a Royalist Kingdom during the Counter Revolutions far in the North at the edge of the Great Prairie. Because of this, the Nation didn't need to commit a large garrison to the already Anti-Republican state, but it was surrounded by former Republican strongholds. The Legions regularly rotated between the friendlier Japmi and its somewhat rebellious neighbors that continued to need frequent patrols of force, using Japmi as something of a training and R&R post.>>6222578>The young men marched in formation to their new home, an urban compound in the middle of Japmi's industrial district where they heard the clanging of iron and steel. They were received by their Commanding General, General Reigen Mugen, to be assigned to their unit. Ichigo's letter made it to General Reigen Mugen and upon reading it, he immediately assigned Ichigo and many random peers (all of (You)) to Green Battery as Artillerymen.<span class="mu-i">"You really like breaking guns apart and putting them back together, dontcha, son?"</span> said General Reigen Mugen.
>Whatever trade they hoped to be assigned in this Journey, it appeared that they were now fated to become machinists, which was good as any job a respectable man could get.>To help the young men settle in, they met with their Anikis, older brothers who arrived the previous year. Aniki Rento Renma took the lead in giving you all the run down after finding you spots in the squadbay, shared with the rest of the battery of around a hundred. Japmi had produced a new breech-loading field gun to replace the current National muzzle-loading field gun, and that their purpose at Japmi was to become not only the Nation's primary manufacturer, but also the first legion to incorporate the new weapon system.>>6222606>Young boys of the Nation often fantasized about having supernatural powers that sets them different from the rest of their peers. It's entirely normal and they usually grow out of it by the time they hit their final and most painful growthspurts.
