[This is before some of the other chapters, just forgot about it whoops.]

The guild hall was bustling with many conversations as Zen and Rasera return from their first training session. 

Rasera: Good evening

Rasera: What a day!

Zen: Are you fucking kidding me?

Rasera: Uhh, sorry?

Zen: My trainer's an idiot.

Rasera: That's unfortunate.

Rasera: My trainer is very intense.

Zen: He doesn't know how to teach people properly.

Zen: Aren't you with a master healer?

Rasera: Yeah, he lives just outside the city.

Zen: Hey. Did you know?

Rasera: I can see why he does though, the training space is great.

Zen: Yonny works at a club under here.

Rasera: I did not know that.

Zen: I saw her when I was with my trainer.

Rasera: Well, if she's still doing it, then she made her choice.

Rasera: Can't say I agree with the decision, but it's hers to make.

Rasera: Hey did she escort you to your trainer, Zen?

Yonny: No, Why?

Rasera: Oh. Hello Yonny.

Zen: I just left. I went to find a trainer on my own.

Yonny: Hi Rasera, Zen...

Zen: 'Sup bitch.

Yonny turns around.

Conn: Zen, no need for that.

Zen: Bruh. Stop being a simp. She's a slut.

Rasera: It's her decision, Zen. I'm sure she knows what she's doing.

Conn: I don't believe what anyone says.

Zen: Rasera, you definitely know it as well, right?

Conn: From what I can tell, she's trying to survive by any means.

Conn: And she works her hardest.

Rasera: I don't know what to believe, if I'm honest.

Zen: Have you heard what they've been calling her around town?

Zen: The MCD?

Rasera: Tch. Yes, I've heard people called her that, among-st other things.

Zen: I didn't believe it at first, but I saw her in action when I was with my trainer.

Rasera: Every story has multiple plot lines, we just don't always hear every line.

Conn: I don't care what she's done. 

Conn: I believe what I believe.

Rasera: In the end, it is her choice to make.

Conn: I think she's a great person and nothing can change that.

Rasera: And I won't partake in the name calling until I have the story straight,

Zen: Suit yourself.

Conn: Anyways, I'm going to sleep.

Conn: I don't want to hear anymore nonsense, good night.

Rasera: That being said, the vast number of name calling has me uneasy.

Zen: But you also have heard right?

Rasera: yes

Zen: She doesn't touch you if you insult her.

Rasera: She has no reason to touch me currently.

Rasera: So I'll save it for when it's necessary.

Rasera: But a cautious berth might be in order for now.

Rasera: I suggest you do the same.

Rasera: Should it be necessary.

Zen: Nah.

Rasera: Good night, traveler.

Zen: You too.

Rasera: Conn, did you meet your trainer today?

Conn: I met him yesterday, but I didn't get much help from him.

Conn: How about you?

Rasera: I wanted to meet up with him, but he wouldn't answer his door.

Rasera: I heard he gives some sort of trial, but I didn't think hide and seek was gonna be it.

Rasera: Anyways, I searched all over, but I just didn't end up finding him.

Rasera: Either he was inside and just mocking me, or I messed up somewhere.

Conn: hmm do you mind if I come with you next time?

Conn: I happen to be quite agile so that might help.

Rasera: You trust Yonny, right? At least superficially?

Conn: I do.

Rasera: She told me the trial is meant to be done alone.

[Why the fuck you lying mmm ]

Rasera: Something about healers need to be strong and independent on their own terms.

Rasera: So if this hide and seek is the trial, then I need to do it myself.

Conn: I see.

Zen: What's this bickering, I hear down here?

Conn: No bickering, just two friends having a discussion.

Rasera: No bickering, just gossip.

Zen: Right...

Conn: Unlike you, we have each other's back.

Zen: If you guys are friends, then why don't you train together?

Rasera: we were.

Rasera: Up until this morning when we went to meet our trainers.

Zen: What about now?

Zen: Go to your trainer with Conn.

Zen: What's so bad about Conn?

Rasera: Nothing is wrong with Conn.

Rasera: I just need to prove something for myself.

Zen: mmmhmmmm.

Zen: See that's how I felt.

Rasera: How hard can it be to find someone in a forest anyways?

Rasera: It might take a few days, but I'm sure I'll figure this out.

Zen: Well, I don't think I need a hopeless trainer anymore.

Rasera: You must've learned quite a lot to feel that way about your trainer.

Zen: I learnt how to do office work.

Rasera: now please Zen. I'm not here to pick fights. We're suppose to be helping this city and its populace.

Zen: Helping? Why would we be helping? Were you born here?

Rasera: Do you intend to rule over them instead? I don't think those people would like that kind of thinking.

Rasera: A prosperous nation yields benefits to everyone, and us doing our part in that is one of the greatest things we can offer.

Zen: You weren't even born here, Rasera.

Rasera: That doesn't matter. I chose to reserve judgement until I've heard enough of the story.

Zen: I've heard enough of the story, the corrupt business behind the nobles and the royals.

Rasera: I'll keep your words in mind, Zen.

Rasera: But don't hold onto the faith that I will heed them until I find out more.

Zen: No worries. I just hope you won't attack me in the future.

Rasera: Should the truth shine favour upon you, then we may see our goals align.

Rasera: Good night again, Zen.

[Okay. Now this is where this chapter is suppose to start after the last one. ]

Rasera: Good morning world.

Rasera: Time to head out for another adventure.

Conn: Good morning, Rasera! 

Conn: I am going to go do the same!

Zen: It's noon huh?

Zen: Hey Rasera! You here?

Rasera: Oh, hello Zen. I have good news. I found my trainer earlier today.

Rasera: He wants me to spend some time outside the city, so I'm just packing some clothes for a longer stay.

Zen: Where's Conn?

Rasera: I don't know where Conn is. I left early this morning and I hadn't seen him.

Rasera: Last I saw him, he was heading to the training grounds late last night.

Zen: Right.

Zen: I'm suppose to believe that?

Rasera: You're entitled to believe whatever you want.

Rasera: But you've given me no reason to lie to you so far.

Zen: So you're going on a trip huh?

Rasera: That's right. Sorry Zen, I don't want to keep him waiting too long. You understand, of course.

Zen: You're probably going to need some money.

Zen throws a small bag of coins at Rasera. Rasera catches the bag in his hands.

Rasera: uhh, thanks I guess.

Zen: Good luck out there.

Rasera: You too, Zen.

Speed: Time to go training I guess. Need my eyes sharpened as an archer.
