Day 221-230/Day 225

Day 225
Today, the wind has been blowing snow around non-stop since this morning. It’s violently moving around a mixture of ice and snow, and the snowfall has reached a height where it could bury me. Because the sky is covered with dark clouds, there’s no sunshine at all. 
Today doesn’t seem to be a bright day at all. Since the weather is getting considerably rougher, I’ll have to stop doing the training outside, even if I intend to still do them as much as possible in the open.
The members of ≪Solitude≫ have grown remarkably recently, but it is necessary to occasionally take a break. So after doing a light indoor training today, I decided to make them study. It is important that each of them is able to think for themselves.
The more they know, the more likely they are able to help when push comes to shove. They might offer suggestions and ideas that I didn’t think of. It’s not only about the 3 R’s (TL: Reading, wRiting, aRithmetic), but it’s also absolutely necessary for us to know first-aid because we place ourselves in battle all the time.
For the members of ≪Solitude≫, who haven’t received any education up to this moment, absorbing knowledge now might prove useful for them in the future. Though it does not change their purpose in Parabellum, it is an opportunity for them to become self-aware of their talents in studying. They may find work they’d want to do.
Above all, if they grow big and only become meatheads, it would be difficult to have them help in managing the organization. If I wanted them to be in charge of accounting or planning, in order to lighten my load, I will need someone that can perform white-collar tasks.
While they are studying diligently, I take advantage of the spare time in between to cook and sew. It was a considerably relaxed day. Seeing the children study on a snowy day, I enjoyed myself very well spending time teaching them.
