Trooper

Written by Martin Ludwell, edited by Smidgen

To be a trooper is to be one in a faceless crowd, you take orders from everyone, and do the hard work. You are the backbone of the Empire, you are the great Shield of the Empress, or at least a part of it. You do not matter. You are the most Important being in the world, to the Empress. Remember your personal insignificance, Remember your importance in the plans of the Empress. -On the dichotomy of the shield by Romanus, First Consort.
