The Announcement
Two months after becoming a Loyal Wing, and five months after Rainier was brought to Heaven, every single one of House Eros' prospective Executioners was summoned to the Flight Wing.
The fact that it happened in the morning was a bit of a relief, though experience traversing the manor grounds had taught Rainier that day drinking was a common pastime for the more leisurely angels. Since they had the day off after the rally, he wondered if he should use his privilege to finally explore more of Araqlun.
As the Prime squad leader, Cassiel was tasked with rallying everyone, which she did with uncharacteristic seriousness. In fact, she'd been uncharacteristically serious ever since being raised to Prime, to the point where her efforts at flirting with Rain had been nearly halved.
He didn't miss it, and the new, more serious Cassiel had earned Rain's respect with every combat, both against monsters supplied by Iriel and other squads.
