It was a typical meeting of Valendian Rangers for the start of the autumn season, and that also meant barrels of mead being hauled in by the cartload. While not every Ranger was required to make an appearance to this annual day of training (which would, eventually, become an evening of revelry unrivaled through most of the year), it was not unusual for those from the deep and distant areas beyond to make appearances that day in droves. Travel routes needed to be assessed and remapped, changes in procedure and policy had to be instated in the ranks, and efforts to recruit and impress the younger fighters were nothing if not vital. Armored dragoons were seen around the shops near the hall that day, Pharist monks milled about both in the hall and some used the opportunity to pay homage at the Grande Cathedral. Knights and archers and every other guild member who favored life in the outlands were seen carting equipment, riding down the street on chocobo, and unintentionally making a spectacle for the city at large. But they were not the only ones to crowd Bahamut Hall that day. This day meant the return of friends, the restocking of weapons, supplies and other rare goods, and also an evening where the guildhall somehow miraculously morphed itself to something akin to a meadhall. Monks from high in the mountains, lead by none other than Captain Yurgen himself--a seasoned Ranger and prestigious fighter of his class, had taken the habit of bringing down barrels of mead from their storehouse. And with the other fighters providing other rare foods and vintages (a group of dragoons found it particularly amusing to try and construct a roasting pit just outside), the long day of dry speeches and tiring paperwork eventually turned into a celebration which would last long into the evening. |
