Adventures Of A Goblin

"ELSA!".

He stood at the door and called out to her who is layed on the bed and surrounded by men and women in armor, all with cheerful expressions on their faces.

Hearing the voice that came from the door, the armored men and women made way for the figure to pass through, leading directly to Elsa who is still on the bed.

"my lord".

ƥαṇdα-ηθνε|·ƈθm She heard the voice and turned her head to where it came from.

Elsa called him by his title, while attempting to stand up on her feet and greet him like a proper knight would his lord.

Thomas realized what she was about to do, and he hurriedly ran toward her to stop her.

She has just woken up, and needs time to connect with her body. Putting it under further stress could lead to more complications for her, and he does not want that.

The knights who were closer to her, they wanted to stop her, but they could not. Getting in the way of their captain fulfilling her duty, is not their call to make, but that of their lord.

Thomas got to her in time before she could get up from the bed, and he positioned her body back to resting on the bed comfortably.

"do not trouble yourself with greeting me when your body is not in perfect condition".

Elsa was far too sluggish in her attempt to get up and greet Thomas, and that alone, showed that she had not fully regained the strength she once had.

No matter how desperate she is to show her loyalty to him by acting accordingly, it would not be proper of him to allow such in her state.

"you should let your body get all the rest it can, and not overwork it".

Thomas saw the expression on Elsa's face, and knowing the kind of personality she has, he knew she wasn't going to do as he says simply because he requested her to.

"that is an order not a request okay".

He knew how highly Elsa regards his orders, and also aware that it was the only way he could get her to be compliant to his wishes.

Elsa who could not go against the orders of her lord, bowed her head in submission to following his will.

Elsa's news of awakening was not one that would help console the lost citizens, and Thomas's reasons for being glad that she was awake, is not because she could restore immediate balance to the city as the captain of the guards.

That, was not the reason at all. Being the captain for years now, she has demonstrated and emancipated the activities tied to her post.

She has stood on the front lines against the attempts of other lords to take over Murian city, warded off low level monsters before they breach through the walls of the city.

Every action she has taken under the influence of the captain rank, are actions that has seemed to ensuring the safety of the citizens at large.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

As it is earlier stated, she might not have the power to skyrocket the city's economy and bring it back to how it was before the Wyverns attack, or the power to instantly heal those who have been mentally bruised under the effect of the Wyverns attack.

She has no such powers to bring the above mentioned to a positive reality, but she does have something that can be offered to the people of the city, something that won't take an instant effect, but will make certain that a gradual healing process will be enacted.

She has within her, hope; the hope that irrespective of what happens or what tribulations they have been through, in as much as they are still alive and breathing well, then there is still a way out.

Elsa can offer to the people what they think is lost, that unwavering hope she has always had with her, she can share it to the multitude.

"where is Blake? I expected him to have been the first one to get here, considering how worried he was when you were asleep".

Thomas scanned the room for the one person he knows should have been here, but to his surprise, he did not see him anywhere.

When Elsa ended up in a comatose state, Blake as the vice captain has taken over the knights and the military, doing his best to see that order is maintained amongst them.

Only if there is regulations of command in check in the military, can there be a systematic function set in making sure that the city stays safe despite what it has been through.

Blake has been doing his best to see that it happens, trying to make sure that what his captain fought for, does not end up in shambles.

"he is currently not in the city. About four day ago, he came to inform me that he was going to take with him, a sizable units to scout the surrounding area of the city for any suspicious moves".

Murian City in its current state, is as vulnerable to the onslaught of outside forces as it can get.

Blake as the one in charge of the military, is doing whatever he can to keep the city safe regardless of what condition it is.

The news of what happened to the city, surely would have gotten to the ears of the neighboring lords by now, and there is no telling when their greed might cause them to make a move on the city.

Blake has to be on alert, and fully ready to drive them back if they do decide to invade, and what better way to do that than knowing when the enemy decides to make their move.

For the past three months, he has made scouting the outside of the city, is primary goal, and restoring the city walls to how it was once, his next primary goal.

"I see".

Thomas understood clearly the intentions of Blake, and he was fully in agreement with it.

"uhmmm.... How long, have I been asleep for".

Elsa has yet to be informed of how much time had passed since she has been asleep.

When she first woke up, she thought it was just a day that had gone by, but Robert mentioning four days, had her in a dazed on exactly how much time had passed her by.
