When I woke up, I rolled to turn towards the desk. There, the gold envelope lay, along with the 6th pin I received: the guild pin. The Ourtale pin was beautiful, a purple shooting star with the sparkles coming out of it. I looked at it numbly, realizing the gravity of my situation. I joined a guild even when I didn't want to, I thought as I curled up into a ball, now I've endangered everyone around me.
When I entered the 248, I saw Ace bound before me and say, "Hey Rose! I'm so glad you decided to join us!"
"Yeah…I decided it was time to join something," I said with a feigned smile.
He smiled with his youthful smile and I turned towards Kaila. I had a meeting with her since she was the Guild Master. She pointed towards a small office room, and she sat down in the chair, while I sat in another. She then gave me an application, and told me her standards and rules within the guild.
"I take it that you know that there are 3 different types of guilds?" she asked me as she was going over her rules, putting on her red spectacles.
"Yes, there are three types. First, there's Order, where they usually do nature and wildlife volunteer jobs. They rarely do anything that requires fighting unless necessary and in an emergency. Then there's Neutral, where they're flexible and will do anything as long as it's not requiring to kill anyone. And then, there's Chaos." Here I paused for a moment before starting again, "Fallen guilds that have strayed from their beliefs and do mercenary and assassin work."
"Good, then you also know the ranking within the guilds?" Kaila asked me as she flipped the paper.
"Yes, it starts from Apprentice and can go as high up to Vice master," I replied.
"Well, looks like we can skip these parts then," she grinned as she held up another packet.
"Now as for my rules, all I want you to do is to get yourself comfortable with this guild. Get to know others and you'll be fine in this guild. We tend to just do remedial jobs and volunteer work," she smiled as she stood up. I also took this chance to stand up too.
"But for now, there's nothing that we have to do. Of course, there is a Guild Board for Quests as long as you talk to either me or one of the Vices, then you just need to tell them which job you're taking, whether it's a D-Rank job or an S4 job."
"Yes ma'am," I said as started to fill out my application.
"Oh and one more thing," she said as she was heading out of the small office.
"What?"
"Don't call me ma'am, just Kaila is fine," she smiled as she turned and walked out of the office.
I looked at the application where the last part required was my signature. I hesitated, then finally signed it. I was officially part of Ourtale.
