Three weeks had gone by, but the news of Avery's arrival was now known to everyone in the town. What she had thought would be a quiet place to live a life, she was gladly mistaken when she saw that it was indeed bustling as it was the last stop before Elbion. The town of Greymeadow saw many...

Avery frowned. "It's just a job, Kael. We're training for a job... unless you want to go into the reserves, which I will not judge you for, but even then, you are free to travel the rest of the cities in our territories. Or even yet... the third option." The third option being exile. That was...

Avery cleared her throat, sliding another morsel of food. "Pay them no mind. Even once they start to talk about you, do not give them anything to fuel their stupid fires." Was all she said before eating. She only responded to one or two Initiates that needled her with commentary. Vittoria and...

She wanted to ask him more about it, but her attention was caught by the stares they both garnered. Avery noticed a few stares landed on her, quickly darting to Kael, and then giggling amongst themselves. "Ignore them." She sighed, turning back to her plate. "I do." To the dismay of the...

"Oh... You're right." But they would be out in the world and free to explore the lives being lived out in the Anirian cities. She could travel to the coastal cities for fish if she had wanted. None of this she mentioned to Kael. Still too new to the idea of befriending someone, Avery kept her...

Responsibility had been handed to her without a proper thought. Or at least that is what Avery believed the moment she traveled to a town just shy of Elbion. It was here that her mission would truly begin. This was her first trial. That was what Dreadlord Bennett had told her before handing...

Avery almost coughed at the richness of flavours she was experiencing, but it was delightful the entire time. She dug in again, looking around to see others poking curiously at their meal. Once her mouth was clear, she looked to Kael, withholding a small smile. "Great, isn't it?" The changes...

Avery wanted to agree on this view of Nas, but she herself did not know him that well. But given into account of his magical abilities and whether or not he would stand on this side of the war or abandon it, she could believe what Kael had said. They walked on ahead, soon reaching the dining...

Avery frowned. He wasn't wrong. Weaker magic that did no real damage or could be made into a weapon were often seen as weak and often weeded out. The moment Avery's magic manifested into what it was had heralded her as the Academy's highly anticipated Initiate, and remembered vaguely a certain...

"Has anyone ever given you a hard time for being a shifter?" She could recall hearing stories of past Initiates in unkind times that were shifters. She remembered the words thrown at them. Whispered. Snarled. Spat. But they were beyond those years now, and yet Avery still wondered how cruel...

"That's all we need to do." She smiled, already moving back to leave. The dining hall was in the next building, but luckily for them they could walk through this current one to get there without having to be in the cool air for long. "Kael." Avery turned to him as they walked the hall, at...

Avery dumped her gear onto the nearest table, turning to the one attending to the Armoury. Her brows lifted, although she should not be surprised by Kael's manners. Not after the half day she had spent with him and his well and good meaning. "Just.. put it there." The Quartermaster cleared his...

Avery was useless the moment Naser had wrapped her in with one arm. Her eyes widened, she stiffened, and she stayed still the moment he tucked her in and simply said No. Kress, she thought, this is awkward. She hadn't ever been this close in someone's space before, but the heat she gave off...

"Oh, well..." Avery had no clue. She could barely remember the plate she ate all those months ago, but failing to provide a proper answer simply made her feel slightly guilty. "I... don't know, to be truthful." A sheepish smile gave way of her unease. "Perhaps we will be surprised for dinner."...

Avery couldn't help but walk practically onto Naser's heels as he led them both into the crevice in the rocks. She tampered the whimper that threatened to fight it's way past her lips the second time they heard the howl, and her panicking only made her be sure that is was was werewolf now...
