The silent young hero led the rose haired girl to his shared room and pointed to a bed next to Whisper's that was across from his. The boy climbed his bed after blowing the only source of light in the room out, but before he could do so, he heard an almost shaking voice from the girl who was actually smaller than him.
"Hey umm… thanks for not bashing by skull in with your stick earlier, usually people don't take kindly to thieves." The girl waited for answer from the boy but got none. "My name is Rose since my parents used to like them and I was born with the same color in my hair, what's yours?" She still received no answer. Finally the girl started to get some anger moving around in her veins. "It's extremely rude to not answer someone when they're talking to you." Rose said while grinding her teeth, but she was met with the same silence. Fed up with the boy she started marching over to him and strangling an answer out of him but her new roommate decided to speak up.
"I doubt that Farmboy is going to talk, if you didn't know he never talks. All of his masters try to make him talk but they all fail, sometimes I doubt he even has a tongue or voice box. Any way my name is Whisper, sister to the legendary hero Thunder who fights in the Arena. When I become a hero I'm gonna fight side by side with him in the Arena." The dark skinned girl said with a dreaming smile on her face.
"My name is Rose, its nice to meet you Whisper, I hope we can become friends." Whisper gave her a confused expression for a moment before turning into a full blown smile. "We're roommates so it'd be better if I liked because if I didn't then I wouldn't be able to get much sleep considering you managed to sneak in here without being caught. Well, except by Farmboy, but don't worry about him, he's a special case." Rose gave out a chuckle and gave Whisper a kind smile, she could tell they were going to be good friends. She turned her head to the "Farmboy" and noticed he was observing her before turning over and showing his back to her and Whisper.
"I know you can hear me, and one day I promise you, I WILL hear your voice." Rose said with a fire in her eyes. Whisper widened her eyes when they saw the Farmboy turn slightly to only show one of his sky colored eyes then he gave Rose a smirk before turning back over. "I think Farmboy accepted took that declaration as a challenge" Rose settled into her new bed then drifted to sleep while thinking to herself 'Well if he wants a challenge than he'll get one'.
The sun climbed into the sky and painted its rays over the lands of Albion. It seemed to shine on the newest addition to the Guild more brightly then the others. Rose rises to the sun so the second one ray touched her delicate face she was out of her bed and into her new sandals and looked around the room. Looking over at the silent boy's bed she saw his body still occupying it but she noticed him tossing and turning. She quietly crept over to him and chanced a gaze at his sleeping face, she saw his face in a pained grimace. It seemed he was having a horrible nightmare since he was starting to become drenched in sweat. Rose gently put her hand on his forehead and started to softly rub it.
In the silent boy's head, his village was burning, his family was murdered. His life was ruined and it began his new life as an avenger, however all of his dark thoughts seemed to have wanted to completely swallow him unwillingly because he felt as if he was drowning. Fortunately before he was completely consumed a warm feeling chased all the dark thoughts away, he was at peace again. The same peace he enjoyed before his life was taken from him.
Seeing the boy calm down into a more blissful sleep, Rose showed a small smile before walking down into the Map Room that was at the entrance of the Guild. Beside the Map table there was the Guildmaster scanning over the massive map of Albion. Sensing a presence in the Map Room the Guildmaster turned around and saw a young girl with soft red hair and a servant's dress walk down the very detailed stairs.
"Well good morning my young addition to the Guild, it's a bit early to be up isn't it?" Seeing the man last night the girl did not thank him for letting her sleep in the Guild, before she could thank him he raised a hand to silence her. "There is no need for thanks it may be true that you did tried to steal from us but the skill you did with had me intrigued. Tell me do you know the three disciplines for a hero?" Rose shook her head no. "I thought so, no one should expect others to know unless they had to, anyway they are: Strength, Skill, and Will. Strength deals with physical combat and a body's constitution, Skill deals with a body's reflexes and speed, it also has a key part in stealth, and finally Will channels the Mana in your body and turns it into an ethereal attack, and some examples are summoning fireballs or lightning. While I think you may need work in Strength and Will, I think your Skill abilities are far more advanced than most of the apprentices in this Guild despite your age. If you were to stay I think you could become an excellent hero, I know this has given you a bit to think about but can you do me a small favor and follow me to the archery range." Rose nodded her head and followed through the back of the Guild and onto the range.
On the range there were three dummies lined up behind one another, with a flick of the Guildmaster's wrist they started moving side to side. The Guildmaster walked over to a barrel next to the range and fished out a small wooden bow and arrow, he handed it to Rose and despite it being the smallest one it felt enormous to her. She looked up and saw him look expectantly at her then gestured his head towards the moving dummies. With reluctance she notched the arrow and pulled the bow string back and took aim at the dummy, after a moment she let the arrow fly towards the dummy. The arrow quickly covered the distance between them and before it could make contact with the dummy, said dummy seemed to dodge the arrow before resuming its usual pattern. Rose turned around and looked to see the Guildmaster still looking at the dummy. "You missed" Rose face turned crimson then went over to the barrel and fished out yet another arrow then tried to hit the dummy again.
