After a week of recovery, recruitment, procurement and preparation, the Swordmaidens were ready to depart the Heavensword Association.
Though the Swordmaidens desired to stay longer in the state, they could not remain separated from the Larkinson Clan too long.
Fortunately, Ketis and the Swordmaidens gained enough goodwill from the Heavensword Association to receive their full cooperation. Bureaucratic and legal procedures that should have taken days or weeks to complete under normal circumstances no longer became an issue after a few minutes.
Ketis or her representatives only needed to make a few personal calls with some high-level contacts to solve their problems!
Swordmasters were at the top of the hierarchy in the Heavensword Association. Though Ketis had already heard about this when she initially arrived in the state, she never imagined that her new privileges were so massive!
