The Commission Files- File #a1475 Back for Good

Characters: Fir, Noah

Based on: a commission by kumi_art on Twitter/X

It was a breezy summer day in the nation of Ilia, one of the few times you could actually see green grass and plant life sprouting from the earth instead of miles and miles of snow. A lone horse and it's rider were trotting down a beaten path up to a castle that had been renovated and upgraded in the last few years since it was now the center of Ilia's governance. The rider was of course Fir, the wonderous and talented swordmaster from Sacae, and she was coming back to the place she would be calling home for the foreseeable future.

"It's not so bad on days like this." She commented to herself as she saw birds flying through the trees. "I'm sure I'll learn to love it here, I've adapted to worse situations." It wasn't as if she hated the thought of living in Ilia, but it wasn't her first choice obviously. But there was one huge upside to the whole situation and it revealed itself as Fir got closer to the castle with another horse and it's rider trotting up to her.

"Can I help you miss? You seem a bit lost." The man, Noah, joked. A rare scene to be sure, but one Fir got to see more than others.

"Hmm, yeah, I think I might be." Fir played along. "Any chance a handsome knight like yourself would be willing to help me on my way?"

"How do you know I'm a knight?" Noah teased. "I could well be a mercenary looking for a job."

"Doubt it, you have that knightly look about you." Fir teased him back before they let the joking go by. "It's so nice to finally see you again Noah. How have things been? Is everything going smoothly with Zelot and everything?"

"Things are going great actually." Noah noted. "As of right now every mercenary band that was in Ilia has either agreed to Zelot's kingship or have noted they will not get in the way of his rulings and decrees, so that's pretty good. There have been some issues here and there, but he's been up to the task. I've mainly been more of a messenger than anything. It's been kind of lonely though, but I'm used to that."

"Yeah, sorry about that." Fir apologized. "I planned on being back sooner, but things just came one after another and like you told me before I left, I should do what I want so I don't have any regrets when I come back."

"And I stand with that and I don't blame you one bit." Noah assured her. "What did you get up to anyways?"

"Well, I started off in Bern of course..." Fir started. She proceeded to tell Noah everything, how she met wtih the leaders of the Sacaen tribes, found herself in Arcadia for a bit once again, and some interesting things she learned while she was in Etruria. "Oh, and of course I went to Ostia to duel Rutger one last time. It was really fun and he and Lilina were great hosts."

"Yeah, I remember our stay there quite well." Noah chuckled, remembering back to when they all shared a bed together. "Did you end up winning?"

"Just barely." Fir admitted. "Rutger is still keeping up with his swordplay and it could have gone either way honestly, I just got the better of him a few more times than he did with me. But he did pay me back later in bed." Noah had told Fir it was okay for her to do as she pleased, even going as far as being intimate with others, as long as she came back and he meant it.

"Sounds like him." Noah commented. By this time they had circled the castle a couple times with their conversation and were getting around to the stables again so Noah figured they would put the horses in and go inside. But Fir had other ideas.

"There is one thing I've been wanting to do though, as soon as I got back here." Fir told Noah with a bit of a smirk.

"And what would that be?" Noah wondered, not quite getting it right away.

"You'll just have to catch me to find out!" Fir teased him before making her horse start to gallop into the woods near the castle.

"Hey! Wait for me!" Noah called out as he started to chase after her. Fir had a decent headstart but Noah was the better rider between the two of them and he knew the woods much better than she did as well, so eventually he caught up with her and got in front of her horse to stop her.

"Whew! That was fun!" Fir said excitedly before getting off her horse and tying it to a tree so it wouldn't get away. Noah did the same, though he didn't know just how long they'd be out here.

"Okay, so I caught you, what is it that you want to do?" Noah wondered before Fir came up close to him and gave him a kiss on the lips.

"What do you think?" She teased him afterwards. "I haven't seen the man I love in almost a year and a half, and I want to see all of him now that I'm back."

"That's something I can definitely get behind." Noah replied with a smile. "But really, out here in the forest?"

"This is the only time of the year we'd be able to do it out here, so why not?" Fir countered. "Besides, isn't there a lake near here in case we get too dirty?"

"You make a good point." Noah admitted. "But let me get out of this armor first so it's a bit more easier." So he took his armor off, leaving him in his pants and undershirt, and once that was done he and Fir started to go at it like lovers who hadn't seen each other in forever did. Each kiss was a rediscovery, each touch was as if it had never happened before, each moan and sound an almost new experience for them. Eventually Noah was resting against a large and smooth rock while Fir was laying down next to him so she could work his shaft.

"Oh, I've missed seeing this." She commented before starting to jerk him off with her hand and putting the tip in her mouth so she could use her tongue on him. Noah arched back and moaned in pleasure, putting his hand up to his head because he had missed this feeling as well.

"Elimine, you're just as good as before, better even." He panted after a while. "But why should I get all the pleasure, lift your leg up a bit." Fir did as he asked and he snaked his hand down her hips and thigh and started fingering her so she could feel some pleasure as well. It worked because he could feel her moans vibrating on his dick and that just made him feel better as well. They kept going on like that for a bit, just testing each other out again, before moving on and getting even closer. The only issue was that while Fir had been slightly active while she was travelling, Noah had been a bit out of practice so he ended up finishing himself off earlier than he intended to.

"Nice and warm, just how I remember it." Fir teased as Noah's seed covered her back and butt as he pulled out so she wouldn't get pregnant. "Gonna have to work that stamina back up though, but I'm sure you're going to be willing to work on that with me."

"For you my love, of course." Noah replied before pulling her in to cuddle closely together. "And I do still love you, with all my heart, with all the passion I said it to you with during the war and when I proposed. That hasn't changed and at this point I doubt it ever will."

"Such a sweetheart." Fir commented as she kissed him again. "I love you too. Every moment I wasn't with our old allies I was thinking about you and what we'd have when I came back, and it kept me moving forward. I think we can do a lot of good together for the people of Ilia, and I hope they come to love me just as much as you have."

"With that kind of attitude Fir, you'll fit right in." Noah assured her. "Ilians are known for their hard work and determination, and there is no other woman in Elibe who I've met who has more of those two traits than you do. Together, we can make this a place where we thrive and not just survive."

"I'm looking forward to it." Fir replied with a content sigh. Then there was a bit of a comfortable silence between them before a thought popped into Fir's head. "Say, since Ilia is so known for their pegasus knights, you think I'd be able to learn to ride one?"

"I wouldn't see why not." Noah commented. "I'm sure Juno would be happy to give you some tips when she has the time."

"Awesome! I think that's going to be my new goal for the moment." Fir stated. "That and our wedding of course. When do you think we should do that? I told a bunch of people I'd send them invitations."

"Well, if that's the case, I'd say let's plan for the end of the summer so everyone isn't freezing." Noah suggested. "That would probably be a good idea."

"Yeah, that sounds good to me." Fir nodded in agreement. "Well, we should probably get going, tell everyone about our plans and to start preparing for them."

"We don't have to leave just yet." Noah replied, surprising Fir just a bit.

"We don't?" Fir wondered before Noah gestured down for her to see he had gotten excited again. "Oh, I see what you mean!" She smirked. "Getting started with your training, I like it!"

"What can I say, I have an excellent 'sparring' partner."
