Them. If it be true that an entire legion can be lost on such inhospitable and wet frontiers, and if it be true that a legion of 7,000 regulars and two cohorts of 3,000 vexillations of auxiliaries each a piece too could be lost even from history; then my fellow soldiers, what hope is there for us too, we happy few, we band of brethren, we legionaries of the last christian empire, stuck here in the snowy drifts of Kintyre?
