General Bando gazed down at Frost with warmth in his eyes, happy to see the young man again after so many months. Because of him he was able to bridge the gap and ascend to the A-rank, a level respected by all.
From his perspective he owed a rather substantial debt to the young man thus he handed him a badge, a token that represented the War Ursa Battalion and the vaunted fortress of Icethorne. With it in hand Frost would be seen as an ally of the Dukedom, a friend that would receive substantial benefits when in their territory.
Friendship with Icethorne and the War Ursa Battalion was something many people lusted after but even so Jared felt that his gift was rather lacking thus he eagerly anticipated the next time he and Frost would cross paths.
Now months after their first meeting the two men were reunited and Jared had the perfect opportunity to pay back his supposed debt.
