45 Chapter 45

When Willard had explained and made sure that Jaana and Elvire wouldn't get lost if they decided to walk or needed to leave the house.

"Willard where are all the refugees as I haven't seen any or at least I don't think I have seen them?" Levin asked as he has been wondering it while now.

"Oh, our commander made a rule to all the refugees coming here that if there is a healthy man who can wield a weapon he needs to be enlisted to the army for the period of the time and would be free again when the beast tide is over. To the woman and children, they need to work also but only in medical, clothing and cooking food as there were so many refugees coming but so limited space for them. So the ones who accepted the conditions we will take in  and train to be in the army or then for women and children sewing, cooking and what else and they get a roof and safe place from here while being paid in army standards and getting food also.

So most of them have been given some kind of shelter from here and they are working and helping us around then." Willard ended his explanation and Levin thought about it for a moment before commenting.

"That sounds a really good idea and they will also learn something and it eliminates most of the refugees but then what about the sick and elderly?"

"Of course we take the sick or injured in without any doubts and nurse them or while when we still can we send the ones that are in better condition to the capital or nearby villages that have doctors.

As even when we have healers here and doctors we don't have that many or many resources and we just cannot treat everyone or accept everyone in as otherwise, it will be chaos around here also. For the elderly we accept them if they agree to work also in the things and jobs they could do still or pass their knowledge then on others and teach them." Willard answered while keeping his expressions in order.

"Even if we would gladly accept and treat everyone we are just humans who have limited space and resources here and we cannot do it. So we try to help them in any other way we could but not many see that and blame us for being merciless and not helping them at all. So they don't even think about us then what we the soldiers that live in this city feel or what about our safety while defending the city and there would be many refugees in our way and we couldn't keep the peace or the illnesses in order as we would have to focus on other things now. So this is the best way for everyone now but still our commander and we have to hear the constant complains as the people only think about themselves in these situations." Willard continued and still tried to keep his emotions in order but now it has failed a little bit and there was shining the frustration and stress even little bit of anger but he quickly swept them and got back to his usual cold stone-faced soldier look.

"Sorry if I offended you as I was just curious as we haven't heard anything about the situation here and as everything seems to be so well planned and organized for now so your commander seems really good person especially in handling situations." Levin apologized to Willard if he somehow did offend him.

"Hmm it's nothing at all it's just the constant complains and the sleepless nights that has gotten under for me now as how many times we had to plan and save and what else we did for the refugees as some of them are from Estrad and you can imagine the reactions when we let them in and not our country's people before them.

But they also are humans and we cannot blame them from anything that their king ordered them to do. So they have the same rights as everyone else has.

So we won't put anyone in front of others as the people from Estrad also have accepted our conditions and agreed to defend our city with the others. So if they are ready to do it why wouldn't then the people from our country be?" Willard asked from Levin and this small question made Levin think the thing without him getting an answer for it.

"It's true and also not true at the same time as it depends on the person and their personality." Levin finally answered after a while.

"Yes it depends on them as people from Estrad don't have anything to lose anymore as they already lost everything but here they have been offered work,food and payment from it and with all of that they could start a new life even when they are in somewhat hostile environment it is also same to our kingdom but those that did leave with their belongings still has something worthy and they could start their life again more easily but they want us to protect them and their belongings and leave after it without doing anything of course this doesn't apply for everyone but here we offer a new start for a life to everyone who is willing to accept it and the conditions and work for it.

But let's talk later about this subject as we have arrived at my house." Willard said and opened the door and invited them in.
