A quiet and constant presence at Fort Runhollow, Corporal Enos is the kind of soldier few notice at first and none question for long. He moves with efficiency, keeps his equipment immaculate, and completes orders without embellishment or complaint. Officers rely on him because he delivers exactly what is asked, no more and no less. Though his rank remains modest, he reports directly to General Thalbout and receives assignments that suggest confidence far beyond his insignia.
Enos speaks rarely. When he does, his words are brief and precise. He listens constantly, absorbing tone as much as instruction, and he remembers what others dismiss as inconsequential. Beneath his reserved exterior lies a sharp awareness of how command truly functions, not through proclamations, but through pressure, omission, and quiet expectation. He notices the strain in officers who give conflicting orders, the resentment in ranks asked to hold lines without explanation, and the small fractures that form long before discipline breaks.
Those who underestimate Enos often mistake restraint for passivity. In truth, he chooses when to act and when to remain unseen. He weighs information carefully, considers consequence, and stores knowledge rather than spending it carelessly. There is a sense, among those who work closest with him, that Enos is not merely following the shape of events, but studying them.
In a world driven by ambition and noise, Corporal Enos operates in the margins. Calm, deliberate, and quietly accumulating influence, he feels less like a fixed presence and more like a force gathering weight, waiting for the moment when stillness becomes action.
