As the group came to a halt in front of the Queen, Halcyon bowed in time with the other members. A swell of pride filled her chest at the thought of being in front of the queen. Once given permission, she righted herself and resumed her mercenary stance, only to have it broken by her slight smile.
While Queen Sera'veilan went on to welcome the strangers, Halcyon listened carefully to the new information. Her uncle was careful to shelter her from the brunt of what happened outside of Ahn'Veria. She had long suspected that he never assigned her missions that would take her too close to the borders for fear that she would learn of the ongoings of the world. To hear the Queen speak of war and unusual sights made Halcyon yearn for the outside world. She wanted nothing more than to go out into the unknown and bring glory to her guild, but she was given small, manageable assignments that bored her.
Halcyon stirred out of her personal musings as she locked eyes with the Queen. Immediately, she averted her gaze in a sign of respect for the powerful woman. As Sera'veilan gave the outsiders a new task, Halcyon found herself once again filled with emotion, though this time it was jealousy. Knowing it was petty to feel such, Halcyon kept her face stoic. She was jealous that the strangers were given a task by the Queen herself. She was jealous that they could come and go from Ahn'Veria as they pleased. She was jealous that they had a good reputation and exuded strength while she was left with being seen as weak. Though one could hardly blame her. She was nearly 20 and had nothing to show for it.
Sudddenly, the Miqo'te found herself enraptured by the Queens words. The proud woman spoke, "You have your orders... as for you girl. I'm assigning you to this task as well... your companions will not be joining... I can't have more then three of you in on this but I can at least give you a good chance of redemption... So on that note, do you have any questions? If not Oliviert please tell them what you want them to know and then show them to the guest quarters. We will have them stay there tonight." Halcyon could have jumped with joy. She could have lost composure and hugged the Queen, but she didn't. She simply nodded in acceptance to her new assignment while celebrating on the inside.
Now was her chance to prove them all wrong.
