~Chapter 28 Half a Year Later~

Half a year ago, an elite monster stepped through the tear between their worlds into Morning Song’s hunting ground. They faced it with a team of eight, only for the elite monster to wipe out half their team.

~Chapter 27 A Few Friends Dropping By~

The weekend arrives in the blink of an eye. Some people return their sign up sheets, already filled, but the vast majority of the guild are procrastinators that are content to wait until Monday. She hopes they will hand in the sign in sheets on time. Because if they don’t, she’ll need to track them down, and the longer they make her wait, the harder it’ll be for her to sort and organise them in time for the special lessons they have planned for the next month.

“You look stressed,” Lucy says bluntly when she arrives with the other guild members from Shatterstrike.

“I am. A little,” Sherri admits.

“You need another holiday.”

~Chapter 26 Back at Morning Song~

Everyone returns to Shatterstrike before Sherri leaves, so she has a chance to say her goodbyes until the next time they meet, whenever that is.

Derek has some food packed for her. Not ‘much’, just enough to fill the back of the car the guild shares.

Nolan has some extra tools and materials that he no longer needs, which gets packed in between the food.

Not to be outdone, Fletcher offers to drop by the weekend after to give a helping hand, an idea that Lex and Lucy quickly jump on.

~Chapter 25 Making Things Right~

What compensation should she ask for? How much should they be compensated for? What is and is not acceptable as compensation?

The thoughts circle in my mind. She lets them run. Some solutions come more easily when they have had space to roam.

For now, it’s a Saturday, which means that everyone gathers at the backyard to watch Derek and Corvus’ weekly sparring session.

~Chapter 24 Different but Same~

She still has her room, even though she’s been gone for a month. She supposed there’s no hurry to clear her things when there are so many rooms left unused in the guild hall, but it’s still nice to able to step in to a place that is ‘hers’.
