Military Ledger Kigum 224aw
Quartermaster's Ledger: The Crimson Company
Date: 14th of Hearth, 224 AW Location: Forward Camp, Crimson Pass Quartermaster: Silas "Half-Coin" Ren
Inventory Status
- Black Powder Kegs: 42 (Critical shortage. Need resupply from Kigum before the Ascendancy makes another push.)
- Lead-Lined Shields: 150 (34 heavily damaged by lightning strikes, currently being reforged.)
- Null-Magic Ore (Raw): 5 crates (Commander Vane has ordered this to be distributed to the vanguard immediately.)
- Flintlock Pistols: 88 functional, 12 jammed/burst.
- Healing Draughts: 200 vials (We are running low on the refined Aether-crystals needed to brew more. Relying on mundane bandages.)
- Rations: Sufficient for 3 weeks.
Disciplinary Actions
- Pvt. Jenkins docked a week's pay for "testing" a flintlock pistol near the powder magazine. Commander Vane personally threw him in the stockade.
- Cpl. Vance demoted to Private after attempting to use an Ascendancy wand found on a corpse. The resulting feedback loop burned off his eyebrows and a good portion of his tent.
Notes
The men are exhausted. The Ascendancy mages are relentless, but their magic is growing wilder, more desperate. Vane says they are running out of Aether-crystals. If we can hold the pass for another month, their supply lines will collapse completely. I just hope my ledger has fewer names to cross out tomorrow.
