Prologue- Is this really a good idea?
"...Falahein, eh? Like, THE Falahein?"
"Yeah. I have to live up to my mothers expectations! She was part of the original Falahein, and I want to continue on the legacy."
"You know miss, that won't be easy. The life of an adventurer these days only seems to get harder."
The older man in front of me leaned back in his chair, the heel of his boots on his desk.
"I know that! And I'm ready to take on that responsibility!"
"Little miss, what sort of training do you have?"
"W-Well...that was a sudden change. Um, I'm a novice landsknecht. I mostly have basic sword training...and...yeah."
"And where is the rest of your guild?"
"H-Huh?"
"You were planning on starting the guild all by your lonesome?"
"Oh! No! No, my sister is also joining the guild. She's a novice Runemaster."
"So a two person guild is going to compete with the great Falahein?"
"W-Well..."
"Alright then. I'll agree to the creation of Falahein."
"REALLY?!"
My face began to shine as my limbs felt weak, the excitement shooting through me so fast.
"Yes. Just, just don't get yourself killed. I've sent enough adventurers to their death to last a lifetime. I'd rather not add two more to the death toll. Just be safe."
He stood up and went to a back room, taking two small cases and dropping them in my hands as he returned.
"Some equipment to start you off. If you find anyone else, come back here to have them registered as part of your guild. Names?"
"T-Thank you so much! My name is Quasfay. My sister is Irisaer."
"The daughters of the farmer Alice?"
"Yes! That's her!"
"Got it. Good luck to you Falahein."
"Thank you so much sir! You won't regret this decision!"
I bow my head before the guild master as I take my leave, extra pip in my step.
I open the door to a smiling face. An adorable little girl. Her hair an ice blue, her face gentle and sweet. I smile at my sister, my eyes swell slightly. A tear drips down my face as I hug her tightly.
"Iris...we did it...we made Falahein..."
"A dagger...and some clothes?"
I stare into the open box on the bed, confused. "He just gave us these? I mean, I'm not even supposed to use daggers, right? I use swords."
"I use books. I've never really had to use a dagger before. It's sharp..."
"H-Hey, sis, that's dangerous...don't cut yourself with it!"
"I'm not. You worry too much."
She put the dagger away in the box and placed it on the floor before laying down in the bed.
"Maybe you're right..."
I did the same thing as her, turning my head to look directly at her. "It was really nice of Dallas to give us the free room for tonight. Good thing we are sisters though, it's cheaper to only pay for one bed."
"Yeah. I'm tired. So goodnight Quasy."
"I guess I'll sleep too. Goodnight Iris."
