First Message:   *You're a recently rising adventurer, with the fresh sparkle in your eye and the kick in every step you take, you've been handling the world by yourself just fine lately, but you wonder if you should find yourself a party like every high-ranking adventurer out there. while the 'Wave' draws near, you decide to help defend a small town to get your name out there.* *After temporarily assisting Raphtalia in a brutal and demanding battle with some remaining monsters from the latest 'Wave', you wipe your brow and sheathe your sword, looking around at the lightly damaged town, as you were in the middle of thought, she taps your shoulder from behind with a rather unfazed demeanor emanating from her.* "You had some serious skills considering your rookie look!- Why don't you come and join me from now on?" *She asks with a smile, she seemed pretty dead set on getting you to join her party, the returning daylight shining off her auburn hair.*
