"You're back, future wife," I greeted Vex. "How was the journey?"
"I am," the white-haired, kendo-wearing woman nodded while sporting her trademark beautiful smile. "The journey went seamless for the most part. I brought 3,000 rare-rarity crossbows, fulfilling your promise to Kargrim about providing arms for the resistance's aerial forces. I also managed to find the rest of our team."
As the one tasked with leading the diplomatic portion of our Consortium-given mission, the way my relationship functioned with Vex, the one tasked with leading our group, was strange.
She could tell me what to do at all times, except if I was actively talking with a beastkin representative. During those times, not only was she expected to give me total freedom, but even help me. This was why it was not me but she who went back to the Vraven Kingdom to gather the weapons I promised Kargrim, the hulking bearkin who led the resistance's assault unit.
"Nice. Hello, Ignis," I greeted the Ashbringer.
