[Archived]I Swear I'm a Good Kid


Recommended Posts

Since the sacking of Haense by the Reiter group, Alanna had long fled the city. Since she left the city, she remained mostly in Cloud Temple, wearing the noble outfit she had bought for herself. Now stained, torn, and muddy, she knew she would have to change in order to more successfully hide. She bought a much lesser garment, a merchant’s outfit, and changed into that. For three years, she traveled back and forth, from the Cloud Temple, to Holm. She was seeking one group, The Ascended. She had no luck however, so finally in defeat, she wrote to other groups seeking admittance. For three months she waited, before finally getting a letter of acceptance from The Remembrance Guild. Then, she sought out the Monks.

 

She was wandering around Cloud Temple when a Monk approached her. Clad in typical Monk gown.

 

“Are you alright?” The Monk peered at her, a worried frown on her face.

 

“Oh!” She gave a smile, “I signed up to be in the Wildvan Order, and I’ve been looking for some Monks?”

 

Instantly the woman’s eyes brightened “That’s great! I’ll have to let the higher-up’s know. There’s currently not a lot of Monks...especially higher Monks.” She sighs, “But soon enough, one of them will send you a letter asking for an interview.”

 

“That’s fine, I can wait.” She dipped her head.

 

“Perfect! Anything else you need?”

 

“That will be all.”

 

The Monk nodded, paddling off.

 

------------------------

 

A week later, she entered The Dominion, walking around and asking different people were an Ascended was. Suddenly, a cheerful woman’s voice interrupted her searchings “YOOOHOOO.” Her Half-Elven ears twitched, she looked at the white robed lady wearing glass, who was waving at her. “You wanted an Ascended?”

 

“I don’t mean to be rude, but I was looking for a teacher? You see, Dael’ran taught me a little bit about the Ascended, then after he died, I was directed to Holm. I overheard the basics on The Order as a whole.”

 

“Do you know the rules?” She asked.

 

“I don’t..I only know the bare basics, my apologizes.”

 

She nods, prattling off the rules while Alanna took careful notes. Then she took a breath. “Our most recent history starts with Belestram, he was the ex-Prince here. He spread lies about the Order and caused a great spilt. He’s our Master Sage’s son, flesh and blood. Well..was, his betrayal hurt our Order a lot, including him. Any other questions?”

 

She shook her head, “Not unless you have anything else?”

 

“Actually, homework! Find three Ascended, Elvria, Blundermore, and Rav. Ask them why they became Ascended, and what they do for the Order. Elvria will be found through the older Ascended, Blundermore is only via letters, and Rav is around the Dominion, bright red hair.”

 

She nodded, standing with her new teacher. “See you!”

 

---------------------

 

She wrote back to the other orders, writing simply ‘Application withdrawn’. She then paused, one of the rules nagging in the back of her mind, ‘One must abandoned titles of nobility and statuses of fame’. She shoved it aside, assuring herself that since her parents were dead, that there was no nobility left. She sat in one of the hale bays, the uncomfortable hay itching her butt. She laid back, sighing as the Elves around the Dominion milled around. She rubbed her nose, the weight of her choice on her shoulders.
