Kaalia and her mother had safely made it to the Prime Church of Arthane, the base-of-operations so to speak of all religious activities within the empire. When ever it is used for any purposes, political or otherwise, the royal family are, more likely than not, involved. With this being the case, the celebration was a rite-of-passage for any royal youth who had reached the age of 20 years, and was then signified as a true adult.<br/><br/>"Why must I do this, mother?" Kaalia complained. "Isn't it easy enough just to say that I am an adult, and not have to ignore my wishes? I mean, I already commanded one of my servant to help me and-"<br/>"No, you MUST do this. Otherwise, you will not be signified as a true successor to me and your father, and all your royal pri-" he mother interupted<br/>"Fine, but after this coronation of sorts, I will be leaving for the military." Kaalia inserted spitefully<br/><br/>"What every you like to think" her mother mumbled.<br/><br/>*1 and 1/2 hours later*<br/><br/>IT had been only 30 minutes since Kaalia had officially been deemed a true "successor" to her parents, but she had still stood where where this had taken place, being told what was expect of her by the arch-bishop of the cult of arthane, Father Alus her father, and the grand-tactition of the templar's order, High Cathar (his rank) Delvon yaran. "This bores me to death and back, why didn't I just join the military when I had the chance. Arthane, if you listen to mortals, please let me escape from this stupidity." Kaalia thought, her arms folded, looking away from father Alus, who was telling her of her holy duties in the future should she become queen.<br/><br/>As soon as that thought finish, the door burst open, with a knight at the entrance, gasping, with a panicked look. "My lord, my Queen, the fae, the have begun to to assault our scouting legion we sent!" The knight yelled, causing some confusion in Kaalia. "Fae, attacking a scouting group without reason? I have never heard of such a tale like this..." She pondered, thinking of all the tales she read, where the fae had almost always been a peaceful race. "Well, if it gets me out of here", She then realized, inadvertently swatting away her original thought on the Fae's assault. "We need as much fighters as soon as-" the soldier called out<br/><br/>"I'll gladly join!" Kaalia yelled, running to the front to the front exit of the church, grabbing her sword, ignoring the gasps of everyone, and her mother's protests. "Umm...alright my liege, well, I guess that since you are officially 20, you may proceed with this course. Kaalia then began to follow the soldier, after grabbing her armor and findign the horse her servant bought for her at the exit she had designated. "This way, Ms. Vonethes", the soldier said, confused as to why a possible queen would want to join the army."
