A shot way above the palisade, an aarakocra could be seen flying overhead from 1 side of the area to the other. Like all other aarakocra, Tekdek did not enjoy confined spaces but very much enjoyed being in the air. And so it was that Tekdek found himself about 20 above the palisade, picking out people from the crowd that wore the same yellow arm sash as he did. With his avian perception, Tekdek spotted the others who shared his sash color with relative ease. So far he had spotted a high elf ranger, a forest gnome druid, a human barbarian, a human warlock, and a hill dwarf cleric. Tekdek was fairly certain there were more yellow sash bearers, but he had become to distracted to properly locate them. The source of his distraction was the kobold standing standing on the stage deep in conversation with those around her. She probably didn't remember him, but Tekdek remembered her all too well. Were it not for her timely intervention 2 years ago, Tekdek would have met his death at the hands of an orc raiding party just 2 months after coming of age. Now he had the chance to repay that kindness by serving under his saviour. Tekdek was joining the Hero Guard, no matter what it took to do so.
