The day had only just begun, and it already felt like chaos was on the agenda. After the early-morning dragon drama, I was half-expecting things to calm down, but with Ignis still zipping around like an over-excited child, that hope was quickly dashed.
By mid-morning, I was on my way to the training grounds to supervise the new recruits. This would normally be a straightforward task assessing soldiers, offering guidance, making sure discipline was maintained but today, it felt like I was bringing a circus with me.
Aurelia was walking beside me, looking as serious as ever but with a definite edge of irritation from our earlier dragon-related disasters. I had to admit, seeing her struggling to control Ignis had been... entertaining.
Then, of course, there was Elara, my new bodyguard, trailing behind us with a silent, almost brooding presence. She didn't speak much unless spoken to, which made me wonder how she was feeling about all of this.
