[BACKLOG - SCENE] The Making of a Soldier

Who: Legretta and Tear
Where: Yulia City
When: ND 2016
Warnings: Nothing really.


It was just so unfair. When Teodoro had finally agreed to ask Van to allow her to become an Oracle Knight, it was supposed to have meant that she could go to Daath and train there with him! Instead, he had sent someone down to Yulia City to train her there. Why had he done that?

Well, it didn't matter. She would just wait in her room until the tutor left, and then deal with things after. Maybe there had been some sort of miscommunication. Yes, that was probably it. Instead of sending her up, someone had been sent down. Well, it would be easy enough to straighten out.

But how long to wait? Tear had said that she was feeling ill in order to get away from the tutor, but laying in bed biding the time was very boring. Surely the tutor would have gotten fed up and left soon after learning that she was not up to training that day. She slowly got out of bed as quietly as possible, tiptoeing over to the door to try to listen if someone was there.

Silence. Well, it was probably safe to come out. She sighed, before opening the door and stepping out. Perhaps now she could get things straightened out, and would be on her way to the Outer Lands.

Hearing about Legretta's position, Tear perked up a bit. That was the sort of thing that she wanted to be able to say she did. Van had sent down someone who was obviously important to him... this might not be that bad after all. The fact that she had stuck around for so long was strangely touching in a way Tear couldn't express, but it made her feel a bit more secure - as if this was right, that she should be doing this. Most of the time in Yulia City she felt like an outsider and kept to herself, so having someone there only for her was strangely elating.

Perhaps it would work after all. After this, she would have the skills she needed to properly assist her brother. She managed to smile a little bit, inclining her head in a proper bow. "Thank you for coming to teach me," she said.
