"So...are you excited?" Happy asked as Alejandro led the march towards the Rune Knight headquarters. The elf didn't say anything, they never got the time to sit and think about what this meant. A Lieutenant, at their age, is something that doesn't really happen often. What made this new position even more impressive was how quick they reached it. It took a total of two weeks for them to become a Lieutenant. It seemed like Captain Kyro truly believed in them. Whether or not that faith was misplaced was an entirely different conversation, but could Alejandro really keep up? Was it premature? In the end, the Stellan had no idea. To answer happy's question, "I...don't know. I'm slightly confused." they said with another shrug. Happy was boastful with joy. Their best friend had reached an impressive rank which meant more money and food for him. Alejandro said nothing more after that and simply walked into the building.

Of course, per usual, there were Knights all over the building. Eyes drifted towards the them for the first time ever. It seemed like the other Knights had heard about the news. Some of them just watched, while others watched in jealousy, a tiny bit of disgust. It would make all the sense in the world if they saw this circumstance as one of privilege. Alejandro was a Celdrua after all, they came from a family of prestige, class, and power. However, none of the Knights would dare approach them and say such a thing. From now on they would have to salute the Lieutenant. Ale kept their green eyes forward as they moved through the building. The setting was new for them, at least in terms of finding Kyro's office. For that past two weeks the Dragon Slayer had been meeting them in their office in the base at Crocus.
more after that and simply walked into the building.

Alejandro couldn't help but to ponder on why they were aiming for Kingsguard. Lieutenant was pushing them closer to their goal, but why did they really want it? Was it for their sister? To impress their father? Legacy? Fame? They weren't all that of an ambitious person but as of late they found themselves wanting... wanting more. Wanting to be someone notable, wanting to make a name for themselves outside of their family. They didn't want ownership of House Celdrua, they knew that much was true. As they pondered they quickly came to a halt. Finally, they found the door they were supposed to meet Captain Kyro behind. Their mind came back to the reality and no longer were they wandering through the depths of their thoughts. Before entering, they took a deep breath. They knew what was coming but it was the workload that they perhaps were not prepared for.

To their surprise, behind the tall wooden door was not only Captain Kyro but a cake in his hands. The man gave Alejandro a smirk before chuckling and announcing, "The newest Lieutenant of the Rune Knights Organization! Congratulations Lieutenant Celdrua." Alejandro's eyes widened in both shock and happiness. This was a pleasant surprise, to say the least. "Woah-ho-ho! Th-thank you!" They exclaimed. Happy stood off to the side with a smile. In a matter of seconds his eyes drifted towards the cake. "It...looks...so...good..." he said as his hands reached towards the cake. "Aht aht aht! This cake is for after the mission."Happy's smile immediately faded. After the mission? They couldn't catch a break, huh? The Rune Knights always had something for him to do- or at least Captain Kyro did. "Oh? Whew, I didn't realize I'd be sent on a job so soon." Captain Kyro placed the cake down beside him.

"Well, you're a Lieutenant now and to be fair we don't have many. A lot of the other Lieutenants are out on missions already since the rifts started popping up everywhere. You're the only one free to take the mission." He began before stepping forward towards the Elf. This had to be an invasion of privacy. "You're the youngest Lieutenant right now. Although you have reached a position that most Rune Knights dream of reaching, It's only the beginning. Don't get too comfortable. With your strength and abilities you may not even be a Lieutenant for long." Captain Kyro tucked in his lips. He then placed his hand onto Alejandro's shoulders and for a moment there was complete silence. "I'm proud of you..." Kyro admitted. The two locked eyes and the moment became so tender it was almost unbearable. There was something...something in Kyro's eyes that spoke volumes. The captain pulled away.

Kyro moved back towards his desk to put the container back onto the cake. He was teasing, because man did Alejandro want a slice of that. Happy did too and now he was upset that he had been denied access to it. The cake was vanilla with a caramel cream cheese topping and small cookie crumbles sprinkled over. Kyro proceeded to discuss the details of the quest. It sounded like there was much to do. Alejandro was required to escort a High priest who worked in the Cathedral of Crocus, to the Northern Region of Fiore. Apparently he wasn't very friendly and expected an entire camp of Rune Knights to do the job. A High priest was a very valued member of society, so the Stellan wood-elf wasn't immediately taken aback. It was the entire recruiting other knights task that seemed like the most troublesome task. Already, they would have to do some enforcing, per se.

When they first joined the Organization they could already sense some ill-will from the other members because of where they had come from. A lot of Knights joined the organization to be saved, for lack of better words. Some of them had no family and others had nowhere else to turn. There were others who wanted to make a name for themselves but Alejandro hadn't come from such a background. They didn't need to join the Rune Knights and they didn't necessarily need to make a name for themselves either. Plus, they were so young. Fortunately for them Captain Kyro already had a list of people that would be working under the newly inducted Lieutenant. The older Knight would snatch a paper from his desk before handing it off to Alejandro. Happy wanted to see ofc, so he just expanding his wings and floated towards his partner Rune Knight partner.

And now, it begins. Captain Kyro continued to give the Run down of the whole mission. Alejandro was to meet the priest in the cathedral and travel. The whole mission would take an entire day. What was strange was that Captain Kyro wouldn't tell the new lieutenant what the priest was actually transporting. As much as Ale wanted to know those specific details, it was easy to understand that it was confidential. Still, that wouldn't stop the young Knight from trying to figure it out. The item or items being transported were highly valued and a bunch of people wanted it. While the mission sounded simple, surely it would come with hardships so Alejandro had to prepare themselves for another life-threatening fight. It goes without saying that the Celdrua didn't find any thrill in this mission, but a girl's gotta do what a girl's gotta do. With all the information acquired, Alejandro nodded.

They didn't have much of a choice in the matter. When Kyro gave him a mission it wasn't like they could deny or reject. Kyro waved the new Lieutenant off and now it was time to find the group waiting for them. Alejandro left the room and stared at the paper. There were fifteen names. That was a lot of people to send on a mission like this, obviously it was necessary. The names listed weren't names they had ever heard before but their rankings were plausible. Almost all of them were Seated Knights. That made them dependable in battle. Alejandro trusted Kyro's judgement so they weren't all too worried. The work had officially began. This was their first time taking a mission as a Lieutenant and their first time ever leading a squad. Failure was absolutely not an option, not now when all the superiors were undoubtedly watching them.

Happy strolled alongside Alejandro as they moved through the building, making their way back to the entrance. The team was outside waiting for them so they didn't want to hold them up. How does one be a good Lieutenant? Giving orders wasn't exactly their forte. Oddly enough, this was a similar role they would have to play if they were to take up Heir. It made them wonder if the gods were foreshadowing such an event. Either way, it was time to get down to business. In no time they were approaching the team, all who saluted the Wood-Elf as soon as they approached. At first Alejandro cringed. This was too weird. The team waited for a response from the Lieutenant and it became obvious that Alejandro had no experience when it came to leading. "Alright. Is everyone ready to go?" They asked with a straightened face. They had to play the part, right? The Seated Knights nodded. Some of them asked details about the quest which Alejandro had no problem telling them about. Out of all of the people here they were obviously the youngest. However, they figured that if they remained serious and kept the smiles to a minimum that these men would take them serious. That was how it worked right? Alejandro had no idea what they were doing. Happy followed their lead and kept a serious expression. Before long the team was off and making their way to the Capital of Fiore, Crocus. To Alejandro it was home but they wouldn't be returning to visit family.
