Velam

The next day came very fast. I grabbed one of my spare armours that I was going to dispose after the task. The time has come. And soon enough I was riding into the battle with invisible enemy. The Operation Black Death. I was feeling awful after the events of yesterday and worse things were ahead of me still. Soon we approached the village gate and The Major ordered us to make a line and so we did. He started to assign people into groups. I knew that my task will take a lot of effort from me but even more from those who will come with me.

Luciana seemed to finally understand our feelings and intentions yet I've still not trusted her enough. There was only the task between us. 

We followed the Major once again so no one could hear our conversation. We remained silent on the way as it seemed the best options with the Major's hard temper. She must've been a really tough person after all if people were just going away from her way. Finally, we stopped by the bay. "Here can talk. Speak!" - She then said hardly towards us as she looked at us with folded arms. I did not like that attitude at all. The respect should be for both sides, not for one!

And so we walked towards the stables once again. Velam seemed as focused on the task since he arrived as was I since I first came to the city. "What should we do ?" - He whispered to me, right when a squad of heavy cavalry entered the city. They seemed really fearsome for the locals, but as a Citadel Guard I was not afraid of any kind of soldier. I was accustomed to see many kinds of them, both friendly or not.

I was now here for almost four days and still without a clue. No guard has seen the captain for a couple of days and I was really in a hurry. I decided then to take a walk through the city and its outskirts once again to calm down my emotions a bit. The weather was quite nice that day. It was warm and there was only the sea breeze blowing by the sea. I took my usual path leading through the city and then by the road to the stables. Nothing could give away that my situation was to change at that moment. As I went closer to the sea I've encountered a familiar figure.

As soon as I was done with my watch I decided to go for a walk and use the good weather. I moved through the throne room and then through barracks encountering Captain Nirna enjoying her rest as well. She's really a nice person. Always seeming so caring and kind to the others even though she is a really good warrior. I hope to fight by her side someday. That would be a great honour to just a humble Citadel Guard like me. We exchanged a few words and then I just ventured away to spend some time alone by the docks.
