The sun beamed brightly over the city of Era, bathing it in welcomed warmth. Though fall was soon approaching, an early summer swelter had taken its place, much to the delight of the city's inhabitants. Tōga strolled down the busy streets, the sun's rays soaking pleasantly into his skin. Around him, the people of Era seemed equally cheered by this unexpected reprieve from the usual autumn chill.
It was just another day, another mission, but the fine weather lifted Tōga's spirits, putting a spring in his step. The changing seasons mattered little when each day brought its own small joys, like the kiss of the sun in place of autumn's frosty bite. Tōga smiled up at the sky, grateful for summer's lingering gift on this bright, beautiful day.
Tōga made his way through the busy streets of Era, bound for the Rune Knights headquarters at the city's heart. There he would receive his latest orders, though first came the tedious wait as his superiors compiled the details. Tōga settled in, keeping his restless mind occupied with thoughts of the action to come.
Before long, a Rune Knight guard retrieved a document from the overflowing wall of papers. "Here you are," he said briskly, handing Tōga the directive. Tōga's eyes lit up, eager to review his new assignment. The tedious administrative work was done, the planning stage over. Now the real mission could begin. Tōga read over the orders, drinking in the details, his pulse quickening. The day ahead promised danger and adventure, just the way he liked it. With directives in hand, Tōga set off, ready to carry out his duties for the Rune Knights. The best part of the day lay ahead.
