"Sir Erik The Noble! Pleasure to see you undertake such a mission," Croix said, waving one heavily armored hand towards the familiar warrior. Croix knew the man by name, since Erik often helped the church out by undertaking missions and serving valiantly.
"The mission is in need of attendance." She replied looking upon the templar that had spoken to her. "The better the world would be if more would attend to missions for the honor of Akina then seek the glory of gold." She added with a cold edge waving to a few mercenaries that had just approached the board and taken the few missions with high rewards offered.
"True honor shows with service as Croix and yourself would know, Why don't the two of you both work on this mission, The better minds work together to solve the puzzles faster." The priest said with a smile before turning to leave and adding. "My apologies I must attend to the morning rituals, I hear that more injured will be coming from the lands of fire and ice." He said as he walked off down the halls.
"What say you? Shall we attend this mission as a team?" Erica asked with a look that said she really didn't care what he chose as she waited for his reply she focused her thoughts, the way she did before every mission. She rationalized that flying there would be fastest however is it speed that was required or knowledge. Her pink eyes seemed to see into the heart of people as she examined the young man standing before her she found herself wondering what he would do if he found out the truth about her.
She smiled to herself and almost laughed as she pictured him being shocked that she was a girl. She then looked up again and wondered if he even knew she was a Seriph. She suddenly realized that she may let her masculine appearance fall if she isn't careful and she rechecked her stance standing taller as a few more mercenaries. She wondered why so many looked so tired and worn. Had they been on a dangerous mission, The last few months she had seen no missions go up that were over a 'C' rank. So she wondered was this from the lands of fire and ice they were returning from. If so why had the church not asked her to attend yet. Were they holding her back or was their a greater purpose for her.
"Oh for the love of Akina what is it these men have been doing to be so beaten." She asked no one in particular but still meaning to have an answer of someone.
