Could make for a pretty cool character arc though and it's a pretty logical situation. [hider=My Thoughts] Young cat lady fresh out of Guardian school eager to make her bones, full of what she learned in the academy but inexperienced in the field. Slightly older elf trained in swordsmanship and blacksmithing, not happy to be being issued orders by someone younger than her. Significantly older human, experienced as the leader of a guerilla army and a war hero, also not happy to be being issued orders by someone much younger than him. [/hider] What can Esalia learn from Rintor? What can she teach him? Is the 5 years between Cinnia and Esalia enough to keep them from being friends? What's for dinner? Anyway only two characters seemed to have any issue and both ended up repeating points she'd made. They need to find a place to set up, but not here because it's susceptible to flooding, and they should make some quick introductions.
