The title is self-explanatory. In reality, the truth isn’t at all far from expectations, but sometimes there is an interval of events that will occur. Those moments are not common, but they will always be constant, with periods of lulls broken, only to be renewed afterwards. It is not surprising, therefore, that some will seek out for excitement in what they can find, in order to slake what their bottled up desires for adventures and journeys. But as a warrior, these feelings must not overlap with the objectives that they are given. He knows there are things best resolved quickly, than left to satisfy a few individual’s thirst for joy.[/i][hr] It was time. The missions had been issued at last. The young Alexander was sitting inside the waiting lounge of the Iron Rose Guild, as he held a book about world philosophy firmly in his hand, as the first rows of adventurers began to flood the room. Their expressions glimmered with excitement and joy as missions began to be issued again in the period. It’s not surprising, however, after everything that happened at the Botan’s island. The Simones were one of the most treacherous pirate gangs in the high seas, one that guilds had spent countless times, effort and blood trying to bust out their location, and catch them. For such a reputation, the beauty of irony came when they were apprehended, all of them, on a small island without putting much of a fight. For all their years committing astrocity, looting and stealing, no one would have expected such outcome. And as a result, criminal activities had decreased for a few months ever since, until now. Having settled into the lounge, Alexander took a glance of the fellow adventurers inside the room. The variety of such races and culture were indeed apparent. Alexander was inclined to agree with his father, that such variety can be chaotic. It took a rather powerful and strict regulations to hold these people together. He could not say whether the guild he was in was that strong, but after a few years serving here, it had temporarily assured him. He glanced through it again, noticing a few interesting faces. He had to study them well in advance, because who knows when the string of fate would tie him and them together, either as allies, enemies, adversaries, lovers or friends. There was this blue-skinned bald woman, who were sitting quietly the whole time, a half-elf red head who were buzzing up and down, a huge orc and a some sort of homunculus. These were the most noticeable, and probably only except for the homunculus and and the blue-skinned woman, who he had little information to determine their origins, he could dictate a general overview of how they would react. Hopefully, this would serve as useful in his endeavor. Then the papers detailing the missions were issued. Three missions. With three different rewards. The delivery mission would strike Alexander as straightforward, fast and had a solid reward. But that, unfortunately, did not really help to serve his goal. The same could be said for the goblin mission. Despite being tempting, as it was in Alexander's specialty to deal with such pests, the goblins weren't that big of a threat to Alexander's allegiance. He ought to seek out for potential threats in the world, and he seek to obliterate them, before they could actually cause any damage to his home world. The goblins were just too petty for that definition. The goods recovery mission. It appeared with much less of rewards, potentially dangerous locations. But that was all that mattered. It was said that some sort of ship had crashed there, but for what cause was not mentioned. Such vague information might be a piece of the puzzle that would lead to the picture of what Alexander was looking for. And for that, was more worth the time he would spend. Alexander, as decisive as he would be, stood up quickly, his hand holding the paper for the goods recovery mission. He approached the red-haired woman, and the commonly known S-ranked adventurer Maya to hand the paper in. [color=0054a6][i]Let's learn who shall be on route for this task.[/i][/color]
