The following are transcriptions of recruiters from Acheron.

"Your army is crushed, you unit destroyed. As far as I see it, you have two choices: join us or die."- Typical Acheronian commander addressing new prisoners of war.

"Well, well, General Ingmar, it would appear that my military prowess far exceeds yours. It's quite interesting that an army one-fifth the size of House Xavier crushed your House. How does it feel to know you lost House Xavier?""Go to hell.""No, General, that's where you're going. You see, you are too valuable for me to execute. Instead, you will be cowed. Broken, if you will. You will be my personal slave and you will do as I wish."r>- General Chrystalia Regalia to her new prisoner.

"Divide them up. Bring their officers to me. All enlisted shall be imprisoned and made to work for our needs. Their officers shall impart all their knowledge to me by choice or by forcing it through their screams. The ones who survive will be used for heavy labor and if they show promise, elevated to the status of an enlisted soldier."- General Elhias Ziverk IV, commander of House Ziverk, upon hearing the results of a failed assault against his House.

These three transcripts show the whole of recruiting within Acheron.
