Jumping back to the scene after Kyle comments about Mikina's random cat fetish and before the battle at Castle Hedgehog:


 * They are at the town of Lioness; roses are planted throughout the town. and futher north in the town is Lioness Castle.


 * Lioness Castle had been the headquarters of the Lioness family for a long time when they were still battling the Marlon royal family for supremecy. It became the property of the Marlon royal family after the Lioness family perished about 200 years ago.


 * Roses were the favorite of the previous Lioness monarch (the term is 公, which can mean monarch/ruler as well as duke/prince; I'm assuming the former).


 * The Lioness family made a garden of roses in there territory (or out of their territory; one or the other).


 * The soldiers who served the Lioness family had been an enemy to the rose gardens and were the ones most responsible for stomping all over them; yet they continued to fight to protect the roses beautiful bloom.


 * 4200 Marlon soldiers are gathered there at Lioness in preparation for the march north into the Blood Pool Region.


 * They are organizing the battle plans.


 * First, the army's been divided into five: first, after the second-fourth armies (about 3500 soldiers total) merge with the northern garrison soldiers stationed north, will see the situation with the suppression of the dead soldiers and then coordinate the defense of each major city.


 * The fifthy army (about 300 soldiers), will protect the stronghold at Lioness while the first army (about 400 soldiers) will proceed straight west in the Blood Pool region towards Castle Hedgehog where Prim is suspected to be.
