Councilman Herrimon paced his office, regularly wiping perspiration from his brow. “Major General, I want your divisions battle ready and transferred to the surface of Verdantia as soon as possible. How much time do you think you will need?”

“Sir, I should think an NT ten-day would be adequate to muster, have the men field-equipped and transferred to the surface.”

Herrimon stuttered to an agitated stop. “A ten-day! Why so long?”

The major general maintained his stance as if Herrimon were a reviewing general. “Sir, we are talking two divisions—six battalions, upwards of ten thousand men. We need at least that long to stage and transfer them to the planet’s surface.”

“Just get it done, Major General.” Herrimon handed him a thick packet of papers from his desk. “These are your orders. You will march on Sylvan Mintoth and bring that city under my control. The details are spelled out in your orders. I doubt you will have any resistance. This is the last thing they are expecting.”

Herrimon drummed his fingers on the desktop. “And Major General, I will be exceedingly unhappy if Queen Constante manages to survive your occupation.”

At the surprised grunt of the mercenary leader, Herrimon examined him closely. “Do you have a problem with that Major General?”

“No, sir. No problem.”

“That will be all, Major General.”
