Background

Dertan is the brigadeer of the Riverwatch region responsible for the royal forces (and attached regiments) in the Sokar duchy, the engineer in charge of Firen's rebuilding, and a man who likes to think in the long term. He is a talented archer that was granted a knighthood during the civil war for his services (or through nepotism) and a student of engineering and other scholarly arts. These days he is a member of the Order of the Griffon, as all the Brigadeers and royal officers must be.

"A man that expects to be treated unkindly will fight with every ounce of his being. He will fight like a demon because his only chance of survival has become absolute victory. Give him an exit however, or the promise of fair treatment after surrender, and he will always keep a little back during that fight. Just in case. Cherish your reputation as a fair commander. It will help you win."

‘Strategy is concerned with the setting of an aim and the forming of schemes. Tactics are concerned with the execution of the schemes. Strategy is abstract, tactics are concrete. Expressing it in a popular way: Strategy requires thought, tactics require observation.’
