It was six in the morning. The Marluxias are awake and are now eating their breakfast at the dining table. Barbecue roasted salmon, shrimp couscous salad, and turkey sausage. An exquisite line up of food, served only for the most prestigious of families in the country.

Elisha woke a little later than usual, but that proved no problem for them.

"Elle, dear. Come here for a moment."

Elisha's father, motioning for her to come towards as she walks in, was reading the daily newspaper. There was an abundance of stories regarding political and science advancements, but one particular ad caught his attention.

"Yes, father?" Greeting him with her usual smile, she stands next to his chair eagerly waiting for what he wants of her.

"Take a look at this." Her father hands her the page that he was reading through before she arrived. There was a huge advertisement in the bottom left corner of the page about requiring the assistance of brave people willing to defend the neighboring forests and cities. As Elisha was reading through the rest of it, her father adds, "I believe this will be a good chance for you to gain experience."

"Very well, father." She slowly hands the piece of paper back to her father, not wanting to be disrespectful. "If you believe that this will be good for me, then I shall take the opportunity."

He lets off a gentle smile, if perhaps forced from Elisha's perspective. "That's my girl. Be sure to come back alive, alright?"

"Of course, father." Elisha takes a quick glance at her pocket watch. [i]"It's already 6:30 in the morning?"[/i] She hasn't had her breakfast yet, but from her experience, she'll have to leave as soon as possible in order to make it to the town square in time. "I will be off now." The girl bowed as low as she could before turning around and departing for her bedroom to prepare her things.

"Take care kiddo."
