In this chapter, we learn that the militia is made up of some of the best fighters in the world, and that they're constantly on the move. One of the main reasons for this is that they have to get in on all the latest developments in the war. One day, they find Malita in the tavern, and Malita tells them that he's been there for hours. Malita points out that the tavern staff and customers back up Malita's story, but Malita doesn't understand why Malita would want to stay in a tavern for so long. He's sure that Malita is innocent, and he'd kill Malita if Malita were in his place. So, Malita and the rest of the militia leave the tavern and head for the battlefield.
