Rhea nodded, accepting the map and setting off towards the forest. The first beacon stood at the edge of the forest, a sturdy steel structure with a lacrima hanging from it. Rhea lit the lantern, the glow combating the growing darkness. She took a deep breath, enjoying the warm evening air, and moved on to the next beacon. As she walked through the forest, she couldn’t help but reflect on the events in Crocus. Her body still ached from the battle, but the battle was worth it. Testing beacons seemed mundane in comparison, but she understood the importance of the task. The Rune Knights needed to be able to see any threats that might approach in the darkness. As much as she loved hunting, she hoped that nothing decided to jump out tonight. Truth be told, she was far too drained to give anyone a worthy fight.

Finally Satisfied, she made her way back to Lieutenant Marin. The barracks were quieter now, the night shift taking over as most of the city settled in for the evening. It was interesting how peaceful Era was in comparison to the capital of the country. You would think the city housing the King of Fiore would have less monster sightings than Era. Rhea finally found Marin in his office, reviewing reports in the dark only with a single lamp on his desk. He broke away from his focus, looked up, and Private Alvarez an approving nod as she reported the success of the beacon test. He handed her a pouch of jewels as payment for the task. Although it wasn't much, she accepted with a grateful smile. At this rate she'd be a Rune Knight forever, she thought.
