Not all soldiers who are ill have the privilege to leave by boat, especially those fighting on the outer walls.
To be precise, uninfected soldiers are prioritized to board the ship, while infected soldiers have to wait.
For Kaler, who was beside Kolebo, he understood clearly that this was a pretense to prevent the defenders from fleeing.
Because three days is completely insufficient to evacuate everyone, only most soldiers, artisans, and citizens can be evacuated.
The rest can only be those infected soldiers with the worst luck.
It's just that Kaler never thought Old Laver would be among them.
Wearing a bird beak mask, Kaler stood behind the iron gate of Triangle Fort's terrace, shouting Old Laver's name, "Old Laver!"
Among a pile of bedding under the wall, one moved.
Then, wearing half a coat and with a handkerchief soaked in cold water tied around his head, Old Laver sat up.
He looked around blankly, only to see Kaler wearing a bird beak mask behind the iron bars.
