MAGES Chapter 2 Episode 3 Some army that is...
Nileno washed Elito and helped him get out of the river while Marimo was taking a closer look at the robe he was given. It was big and fluffy, yet amazingly light. He wore it and felt surrounded by a very comfortable warmth, but he did not feel the weight of it at all. Stranger yet, he stopped feeling the terrible humid heat that surrounded the river. He felt so good he fell asleep as he hadn't in years. He found himself leaning against a tree when he woke up. The sun was dissapearing amongst orange and purple shaded clouds. Nileno and Elito were just some feet away around a bonfire. Elito had the same nasty expression he displayed when greeting Marimo in the river. Nileno was busy making a stew. Marimo got close to the bonfire (a bit closer to Nileno than Elito and his ever present frown) and directly asked about the terrible army. Here is the answer given by Nileno while Elito munched furiously on a piece of tree root:
-Well, you see, lately this two... females have been invading the fields, kidnapping people and turning them into their slaves with their mental powers! They get you and you become a... a... A PLUSHIE SOLDIER!
Nileno's expression was the portrait of utter despair. Elito was a bit upset himself. Marimo had to use all his strenght not to burst into laughter.
