~Welkin's PoV~
The Valkyria called out to us, asking who we are. "We're the Bruhl Militia!" I replied, trying not to let fear or awe creep into my voice. "Thanks for the help!" She looked at me, and that's when I noticed her pointed ears. "Ah, it was not a problem! Their guns couldn't even scratch me." Shocked by her ears, I asked "What are you?" to which she replied "I am Farseer Oreleth, an Eldar from the Craftworld of Ulthwe." "An Eldar?" I asked "Yes" she replied "First time meeting one of my kind?"
~Oreleth's PoV~
I noticed quite a few of the humans staring, most of the attention however, was directed at my ears. So, despite the Webway not too far from here, they've never encountered an Eldar. "uhm.." I heard a voice "Are you.. a Valkyria?" Ah, Valkyria, I remember getting that from the soldier's mind. "No, I am no Valkyria." I replied "But you have to be! no one else could've done anything like that!" "Eldar can." I swiftly replied, cutting off any further questions regarding the Valkyria. "I assume none of you have ever heard of my kind." Looking around, I saw the dumbstruck look on most of the humans' faces. "I can't say any of us have." I hummed thoughtfully at this. It could be a chance for peace between us, we could settle Exodites here. That is, if i can get off this planet. "I assume you are going to your leaders to tell them of this attack? Let me come with you, I will facilitate peace between our people." The human thought about this for a few minutes. "You can come with, I can't see why you shouldn't."
~Alicia's PoV~
An alien? an actual alien?! I inwardly screamed That's so cool! I have to talk to her when I get the chance! Resisting the urge to run towards her and ask her all kinds of questions like a child, I waited for the chance. Oreleth started walking towards us again, allowing me a better view of her features. She had pointed ears and the looks of a Goddess, no imperfections visible at all. She was also very tall, standing at least a foot over the tallest man. She's so cool!
~Oreleth's PoV~
These stares tell me all I need to know about my peoples' history on this planet. I effortlessly stepped onto the primitive armored vehicle, earning a few surprised looks at my grace. Inwardly, I smirked at their awe, outwardly, I remained stoic, not allowing any emotion to get through.

Arriving at the military installation, I got many more stares from those who thought they were out of my sight. This will be troublesome eventuallyGetting off the vehicle when it stopped, I waited on the human, as I learned, a "Welkin Gunther," the son of a famous warrior for these humans. It is good that I befriended him, it will allow me some sway. When he got out of the vehicle, we walked towards the command post. Once inside, I met with a Captain, Varrot. Who seemed very interested in me. After a long round of questioning and explaining, she sighed. "I have to contact the General and give a report about this.." She cleared her throat. "Back on topic, Welkin, you will be in command of squad 7, compile a list of those you want in your squad and bring them to me tomorrow." Immediately, he turned to me. Oreleth, I want you to come with us, you'll be a great help." Nodding my affirmation, I left to go to the Squad's barracks, which happened to be a spare the Gallians had on hand. Sitting down on a bed, I found it to be adequate but not overly comfortable. Sensing another presence, I looked up and saw Alicia walking towards me, looking more excited than usual. "Oreleth! I want to ask you some questions!" "Alright child, come sit next to me." She started walking faster, a starry look in her eyes. As she sat down, she looked up at me, her eyes brimming with questions. This will be exhausting...
~Time Skip~
From Alicia's questioning, which lasted for an hour, I managed to gather quite the crowd of squad members. After answering everyone's questions, it was quite late. Bidding everyone good night, I sat back onto the bed. closing my eyes, I meditated for a long while before sleeping.
A/N: Thanks for reading the second chapter. I will be accepting some OCs for the squad as well as ideas of where the story could progress. Until next time.
