Trisphee - Recruit a rebel! -- CLOSED!

Ryuko looked out upon the men and women gathered to hear hin speak with joy. He knew they were here for the right reason, and he knew they were finally starting to see hope for a brighter future. In his eyes, this was a victory in itself, but there was more to be done.

"Many of you," he started, "Have stood by me in battle since the beginning, others not as long. But, all of you have a place here, and all of you have become some of the bravest men and women in history, and I thank you." A cheer from the crowd. "But now, I ask that you not only bolster your own spirits, but that of others. Our numbers dwindle, under desertion, and some loss. While we mourn those lost, and those gone elsewhere, we must also remember that we have a duty to those that would also wish to serve in this cause, but do not have the means.

So, what I ask of you, is to go out, find others who wish to fight, and bring them here. We will equip them, we will train them, we will give them all of the necessary tools to become an effective fighter, and a happy individual once this war is over."

Another cheer from the crowd. He had won their hearts long ago, else they would not still be here, but he hoped this went further than just a speech...

"I do not ask for work without reward. Those who bring in the most willing recruits by mrally sound means will be given a token of appreciation from myself. So, go forth, and do your best to recruit as many as possible. I thank you again, on behalf of not only myself, but on the behalf of all people of every world- I thank you."

Ryuko stood there as they cheered then went about their business. He knew he would not see all of these faces again the next day, and he wished to remember every one of them as they were now, happy, joyful, and together.
