[i]Regis...[/i] As Lyrel spoke of herself, Gwen couldn't help but wonder where exactly she meant and what it was like. Gwen imagined it may have been like the Derelict City. Perhaps she and Lyrel had more in common than she had first realized. This assumption was only further concreted when Lyrel mentioned that Dilei was a city that held much more riches. Her locution was a bit different, but Gwen wasn't particularly aware. Instead, she merely assumed that Lyrel's roots had taught her a different sort of language. [color=darkorange]"Ah, I've not heard of that place. Perhaps it is like the—"[/color] Gwen found herself cut off as someone above rose their voice to address the ever-growing crowd. Her gaze followed upward to outline the speaker. She was a bit of a boisterous woman that certainly captivated the eye. Gwen could only imagine that this was some sort of authority figure.

The woman got straight to the point. As she explained the nuance of the guild's multiple boards of contracts, Gwen flashed her eyes across the various sheets of paper just long enough to miss the brilliant feat of flare the guild's authority undertook soon after. Gwen hadn't even bothered to note the various reactions shown by the populous in the room, instead still having her mind locked on the slew of contracts enticing her eyes. Of course, most of Gwen's focus was drawn specifically to the final board that the speaker reached. The few contracts upon the most 'distinguished' board immediately called to the young Gwen. She could only imagine taking on the worst of the worst with only the best of her skills put forth. She certainly didn't want to wait, but thought that perhaps the guild was right in allowing the new bloods to take on the easiest sort of work. It would be a great way for Gwen to acclimate herself to her strange new world.

The prospect of teams got Gwen's mind racing and her eyes doing just the same as they flickered around the room scoping out the few girls she had met so far. As the recruits were slowly separated into their respective groups, only anticipation flowed through Gwen's veins. There was a rush of excitement as she thought about what sort of abilities her own would be paired up with. Gwen had only ever seen a few other Powder Mages aside from herself. Her knowledge of the Flare of a mage and the possibilities it held were almost wholly a mystery. Gwen could only smile when the guild official came to her and Lyrel and direct them both together. Already she had taken a liking to her newfound teammate. They shared a certain unnameable air about them— or at least, Gwen had thought that much. The two others that joined the group had yet to acquaint themselves with Gwen, but she put forth a welcoming smile nonetheless. Lyrel managed to introduce herself and Gwen to start off the conversation. Another of the group's members introduced herself as Raven.

[color=darkorange]"I look forward to working with you,"[/color] was all that Gwen managed before the guild's official spoke up again. With a new task in mind, Gwen set her eyes towards the board. Of course, her eyes were still locked on the most advanced board of contracts. For a long moment when all was quiet, Gwen contemplated what might happen if she tried to coax her team into taking one of those extensive contracts. Another word from the lieutenant sent her focus elsewhere. [i]Of course that wasn't an option as of now.[/i] She felt an impulse just to go over and pick her favorite, but Lyrel's voice momentarily halted her step. Gwen had a team now. That was something she had never really experienced in her lifetime. Gwen wasn't even fully sure she would be able to work successfully in a team. Nonetheless, she and her team needed to make haste. Lyrel's query and Raven's input were met with only a few short words before Gwen started moving without much heed for her comrades.

[color=darkorange]"Well we'll have to go see our options!"[/color] Gwen had already started off towards the board as directed. The crowd held her back a bit as she moved, though. She had hoped it wasn't as noticeable as it was effective in deterring her from moving forward. Crowds were not present at all in the Derelict City. That was the way she liked it, but alas that wasn't the way things were anymore. Slowly, Gwen wormed her way through the groups of people to view the contracts well, only hoping her newfound teammates were in her stead. Gwen surveyed the contracts with a mixture of haste and tact. There weren't too many to manage, but a number of them caught the eye. At first, Gwen was enticed by the mention of the scholar and his key to forbidden knowledge. The chance that she could gaze into the sacrosanct chambers was quite low, however. Her focus was quickly drawn elsewhere and Gwen had decided on where her interest fell.

[color=darkorange]"The Grand Mausoleum: certainly a captivating spot holding a number of secrets, there's bound to be plenty of dust, and it shouldn't be too difficult at all. Of course, it shouldn't be too uninteresting. I opt for that."[/color] She turned back towards her group as she had spoken up— or at least whoever might still be in earshot after she had moved to the board.

[color=darkorange]"What say you, friends?"[/color]
