>>28272125New recruits arrived. I pray to god they are ready for what's ahead. Unfortunately one recruit went AWOL. We were supposed to meet up with a Metapod in Veridian Forest, but the man never showed up. Maybe he got cold feet and ran. I wouldn't blame him if he did, this war is already beginning to wear on me.
The squad still managed to pull through and I can sense a strong bond forming between them. Though they are leaning heavily on Chief's experience to pull them through. But after he took down the enemy commander, Brock, in a surprise assault who can blame them.
Our next target, commander Misty, will not be an easy target. We have to traverse the depths of Mt. Moon, and she knows we're coming...
"It is well that war is so terrible, otherwise we should grow too fond of it."
