Who are you?

The day has arrived, She has come.

"Oh man, oh man! I'm going to be late on my first day!"

Zera was running frantically throughout the capital building trying her best to get to her new dorm. She was recently chosen to be next in line to become an Imperial Guardian. One of the highest honors within the realms military and with that rank comes a new dorm and a new team.

She eventually got to the last flight of stairs, practically jumping over a few steps to save time.

"Come on come on! I can't be late! Not today of all days!

She had finally made it onto the floor, she began sprinting down the hallway to get to the dorm her hair seemingly flying behind her as she ran faster and faster before eventually coming to an abrupt stop then in one swift motion she turned the doorknob and aggressively pushed open the dorm door.

"IM SO SORRY FOR BEING LATE IT WONT HAPPEN AGAIN I PROMISE!" She yelled in an apologetic manner, frantically bowing to display that she was indeed upset with herself.

She began to slowly look up from her last bow and scanned the inside of the dorm where there was a man standing looking back at her with a confused look. He was tall with short brown wavy hair tied, he had green eyes, wore glasses with circular lenses, had a muscular build but on top of that he was wearing a green imperial officer uniform Which had gold trimmings on the blazer.

"Ah you must be the new kid, don't worry you're lucky Silvana isn't here to scold you for being late"

His voice was incredibly soothing and gentle but yet somehow also intimidating at the same time.

Zera took one last bow to greet the gentleman.

"Good morning, my name is Zera I've been assigned by her majesty the Apostle to this squadron. I look forward to working with you"

A smile crept across the man's face as he replied "My name is Lucien Matsubara and don't worry you can drop the formalities when we're in the dorm, here catch"

Zera looked up just in time to catch a glimpse of what Lucien threw at her and caught it. It was a key.

"I was actually waiting for you to get here so I could give it to you.The room on the right nearest to the window over there is yours but as for me I'm actually heading out, make yourself at home but remember to come down at noon for the ceremony"

"Yes sir!" She replied in an enthusiastic manner

Lucien walked past Zera and gently closed the door behind him.

"Woah! Was that really Lucien? The Vice Priest? I heard so much about him! He's even more handsome in person!" She thought to herself.

Zera looked around, she seemed to be in the living room, on either side of the room there were was a door in each corner.

Zera walked over towards the roomon the right nearest to the window unlocked the door and swung it open.

"Wow, talk about the presentation" she said with an amazed look.

The bed was a king size and had silky blankets soft to the touch. The wardrobe closet was massive with a built in mirror and the entire floor was covered by a red carpet.

Zera noticed another door on the other side of the room and walked over towards it.

"No way! My own personal bathroom!? The bath alone is almost as big as my bed back home"

After admiring the bathroom Zera went back to hop onto her new bed and laid on her back staring at the chandelier.

"I wonder why they chose me...I never even completed the academy, I mean a few days ago I was literally guarding a damn library now suddenly I've been promoted from a mere knight to a Guardian...that just makes no sense...Imperial Guardian Zera Kurohana... that doesn't sound right at all"

Zera lets out a soft chuckle, despite this odd situation she took the opportunity with both hands and after a few moments of deep thought she eventually got back up and started getting dressed for the ceremony. You see even though Zera has already been promoted she still has to be ordained by the holy apostle. Guardians are mancers, soldiers that have been granted the ability to control Zenith and in order to do that an Apostle has to give her what they call a "Divine Blessing"

Once she has her blessing she then has to go through extensive special training to understand the ways of Zenith ultimately becoming a true mancer and full fleged combat ready Guardian.

Zera began getting dressed for the ceremony when all of a sudden she heard a voice from the doorway of her room.

"Wait I could've sworn I locked my door...WOAH WHO ARE YOU!?"

Zera turned around and to her shock stranding in the doorway was a woman, once again this person was wearing an imperial officer uniform but this time the blazer was white with silver trimmings. She had dirty blonde hair tied up in a cute messy bun with a red bow and deep blue eyes...however Zera was more focused on the fact that this woman had just drawn her sword.
