@Whoami

I just noticed your name can be said as "Who Am I" like... right now.

wtf

I always thought it was pronounced "hoo-ahm-ee"


Believe it or not, this is a very VERY common thing with my name. xD

As for RWBY, NO SPOILERS! I don't have an RT account so I need to wait until the 18th to see the stunning conclusion. Shae will put you in her pocket dimension if you so much as hint at something major going down.
Hey, hey guys...you've got to now address me as Corporal because someone got an Air Cadet promotion : D

Also, who's thinking of posting next?


Oh really?! Congratulations! I made it to Flight Sergeant in air cadets before I aged out oh so long ago.

Shae Arca
--<::[o]::>--


The transport was quiet. Shae Arca sat in one of the seats and looked out the window to her left. Korstone was a beautiful city, the massive resonant stone for which the city was named stood tall over the rest of the buildings. The palace carved into the great resonant spire bore the banners and flags of Barallia. Shae remembered when she had first come to Korstone as an eager young huntress. The Sentinel was flying overheard and Shae was marveling at the view of the Resonant Palace. The sense was nostalgic for Shae, and she still enjoyed the view.

Sitting across from Shae was a man, probably just nineteen years old. He kept on looking over to Shae and nervously fidgeting his leg up and down. He had been in the transport before it made a detour to pick up Shae. The teen probably wasn't expecting to be sitting in the very same vehicle as the legendary Shae Arca. The huntress saw the boy's leg bouncing up and down from the corner of her eye and it was driving her insane. "You're new to Echo, I assume?"

The boy froze and gulped, "Um! he looked like he was dreaming, Y- yes, Sha- Miss- Ma'am-... Your honor?"

Shae raised a brow, "Your honor?! Well that's a new one." she chuckled.

The boy facepalmed, he blew it! "Sorry! I er- I didn't think I'd be in presence of a hero today. I must look li-"

"Hero or not, rookie, I'm a person just like you. You don't need to put me on a pedestal or anything. Just call me Shae." the woman let it a slow breath and continued to look over Korstone.

The boy probably almost fainted. Him of all people, HIM, was granted permission to use the most famed of huntress' first name! His leg started to fidget again. "Um... I'm Paxton. Paxton Reyn. It's REALLY great to meet you, Shae!"

Reyn, a noble Vindrell family. Shae had had to escort Baron Reyn across Tarcanis once. It was the dullest and most annoying affair Shae had ever been through. She had heard of Paxton from the baron, a nephew who was terrible at politics and had no place in the Vindrell court. She knew that the baron was always a hardass, she couldn't help but sympathize for Paxton. Shae figured he had come to Echo in an attempt to earn his uncle's favor in another way, through battling the greatest threat to Chroma. Nevertheless, Shae had to inquire, "Paxton Reyn. I trust your (unbearable) uncle is doing well? He must be proud to have a member of the house fighting with Echo."

Paxton bit his lip and shook his head, "Actually... He sent me off himself after I spilled coffee all over a Shindani dignitary. I was shoved by my cousin though, I've got the calmest hands in Vindrel!"

Shae took in a breath and crossed her arms, "Ouch. Well I'm certain Echo will use your more prominent talents, and for a better cause too. A word of advice, though, You're going to see a lot of other hunters and huntresses as popular as I am. You might want to get used to it, nervous fidgeting isn't a good sign of confidence."

Paxton straightened his back like a soldier and nodded, "Yes, ma'am- Shae!"

"And do away with the formalities. Echo isn't a military organization, we don't practice parade drill for hours on end. You're going to find that a lot of the veterans are quite belligerent and vulgar towards one another." Shae looked out the window again, "Oh. We're here already. That was quick."


--<::[o]::>--


Shae approached the door to the meeting room. She didn't know what she was summoned for, but that particular meeting room always meant she was taking on some job she really didn't want to do. Her summons had expected her to be present forty minutes ago, she wondered if the people requesting her presence even waited for her.

Shae opened the door and walked in calmly, "I apologize for being late. I had spent the night a lords estate. It was a long night, but the sleep after was well worth it."

The huntress thought about how that must've sounded, Shae Arca sleeping at a lord's home?! Scandalous! Lewd! But she didn't bother clarifying, those verbal mistakes often kept the marriage proposals away for a short time. "Commander Shaewyn Arca, repor-"

That when she noticed the people in the room. Hunters and huntresses, while she recognized Sylvia and a few others, a good amount of them were completely unknown to her. It's going to be one of those assignments... Shae thought.
See post above yours. ;)
Fully moved in and connected to the internet! Expect a post tomorrow evening or he following day!
Busy moving into a new home. Hoooweeeever... @Vietmyke!!!!
A short post, not my best. But I'm really busy and can't sit down for long to write something larger. Once I've finished moving to my new home then I will post in full!

The office was silent. The round walls were turned into bookshelves that reached to the roof. Two fireplaces opposite to each other lit the room and filled it with a comfortable warmth. In the middle of the room was a desk made of mahogany with white marble as its desk top. A grandfather clock ticked away every second, it's deep noise combined with the crackling of the fires made the office seem like the perfect study for any intellectual.

Sitting at the desk, was Lord Balthazar Darro, a man of high stature in Korstone city. Balthazar was writing on a piece of parchment with a quill, feathered with a vibrant aquamarine feather of a Kor-Jay. Balthazar looked up from his writing when the door across from him opened. One of his butlers stepped on through, "Huntress Arca is here to see you, sir."

Balthazar nodded, "Send her in, please."

The butler bowed his head and stepped out of the office. Moments later, a woman in ornate light plate armor stepped in, her helmet at her hip. "Lord Darro." she said, bowing her head respectfully.

"Good morning, esteemed hustress. I trust your rest was pleasant?" Balthazar said, placing his elbows on the desk and resting his chin in his palms.

Shae nodded, "Aye, your manor is far more comfortable than the Sentinel. I'm just coming by to tell you that I am returning to headquarters to report the Lost encounter in the Korwood. How is your daughter doing?"

Balthazar smiled and nodded assuredly, "Tessa is doing well, your arrival last night seemed to inspire more courage in her than fear from the Lost. And your reporting to me is rather convenient." Balthazar signed the letter he was writing an handed it over to Shae.

The huntress took the paper and looked it over, an expression of surprise took over, "You're joining Echo?"

Balthazar nodded, "You didn't only inspire Tessa, Shae. Last night's events showed me that the threat of the Lost is far greater than the public knows. My steward can handle my duties while I fight for Echo."

Shae folded the letter and sent it into her pocket dimension, "It'll be an honor to fight with you rather than for you, Lord Darro. I will pass the message over to the Harp."

Balthazar nodded and sat back in his chair, "Until next time then, Shaewyn Arca. I have arranged for an airship to taxi you to the Sentinel if you wish to accept it."

Shae thought of the commoners in Korstone, the airship became appealing almost instantly. She'd rather fly with one Lord Darro's men than walk the streets of Korstone and be fawned over by hundreds or thousands of fans. "I will accept, thank you." Shae turned and left the office.
I'm in the process of moving homes over the next few days. I plan to put my post up today/tomorrow (it's after midnight >.>), but packing and moving takes precedence so please be patient.
That one works, @FantasyChic!
