"Welcome to the guard," says the soldier. "You will be given your first assignments tomorrow."
OOC: Congratulations! In addition to becoming a soldier, you have trained the Knight class, so your character is now an Archer-Knight.
Azril tries not to grin like an excited little boy and accepts this honor with as much dignity as he can muster.
OoC: Woot-woot! Thanks.
In the morning, the new recruits find a soldier waiting outside their barracks with their assignments. He goes down the list and when he reaches Azril's name, he says, "Leifson, you're assigned to Lady Valerie's personal bodyguard. Report to the keep immediately."

Azril, after hastily donning his new armor and uniform, rushes to the keep, for fear of being late.

There is a soldier waiting for him outside, and he is brought into the keep and up to the door of a room, where four others are waiting. The soldier who brought him says, "Lady Valerie is inside talking to Lord Urbien. We will wait here until they are done, and then we will go with Lady Valerie."

Azril nods and proceeds to wait.
OOC: Unless I think of something else for you to do, we'll have to wait for Shamrock.
"That is rather problematic. What kind of 'success' would you propose?"
"I am sure you are both aware of the ancient fortifications still standing on our northeastern edge. We have not held it in decades; no one has. If we reclaim it, we will display our strength and at the same time bolster it. That is what I propose."
"Yes, I remember it...this is an ambitious proposal. When are you planning to put this operation into motion?"

"I see no reason to delay. I would like to begin as soon as possible."
"Yes, that sounds excellent. Are you leading this mission yourself?"
"Perhaps. Someone needs to be here to manage the castle."
"Yes, that is very true." Valerie pauses for a moment, deep in thought. "Is there anything else you wish to discuss, Lord Urbien? I am afraid I am not as young I once was, and no amount of padding seems to be able to completely stop the incessant bumping as that carriage goes along the road."

Urbien smiles and nods. "I think that is all, for now. How long do you plan on staying?"
Thanks.
