The War Begins

Part I
Some time ago, two individuals called Charles Kyanite Pendragon and Adeptus Astartes had a encounter of particular interests that cause some deley and ordeal. Now settled, they'd travelled up a mountainside and down a path into a open landscape leading towards the city of Malba City, unaware of a potential threat in the horizon.

"That was a pain in my--" Charles began to go on, having a particular situation ruined his mood a bit, with Astartes walking behide him, hands in his pockets.

"Don't worry about it, at least you can finally control that magic of yours." Astartes noted, which Charles took into consideration. "Besides, with that you should be able to still perform jobs, and you did have to return to the guild after all. Been out for like 2 weeks at least, or even a month!"

"I know, besides we're thanfully almost at Malba City so I can get some shut eye." Charles yawned, walking down the path leading to the city in-question. "I'd bet the Guild Master would also want to know why we're late."

"True that, she can be too overprotective, I mean during the conflict against that Empire, she was worried about everything.. Too worried actually." Astartes remembered jow Mary Jane Kelly acted and how she lead the Highrise guild against the threat.

"You almost died, didn't you forget? If it wasn't for our Guild Master, you wont be here, and Hyōsetsu Hakiba sacrificing himself to save the city. I believe she was worried for a right reason."
