[The moment Kratos sees a superior office approaching from a distance, he walks away from where he watches. He can't see the identity of the officer, but it isn't something he's willing to risk. Instead he moves toward the quartermaster, as he hadn't been able to find a suitable knife in Nidavellir before they left. It's as good a time as any.
[It effectively means that Kratos is nowhere in easy sight by the time Yuan comes to meet O Branain.]
Commander Ka-Fai.
[Routine is all O Branain is here for; but he's more judicious than many other generals. Ka-Fai is a good soldier, a good commander, and also a puckered scar in the body of whosever division he happens to be part of -- because he's a half-elf. Things tend to risk being unpredictable, where Ka-Fai is concerned. For that reason, O Branain likes knowing the atmosphere of Ka-Fai's regiment before they get deployed.
[O Branain starts walking -- in the direction of the quartermasters' tents. Supply is important, and one of those process which needs to remain smooth, and may not be, because Ka-Fai is a half-elf. If only he'd been born human; it's a pity.]
