Lexa planned another family dinner, where Clarke and Lexa had planned, to ask Raven to be on the High Council.
Lexa, Clarke, Raven, Octavia and Abby were joined by Aden and Sierra for dinner.
Lexa and Clarke walked in and placed a sleeping Caspian in his bassinet, that was permanently installed in the dining hall. It was nice to have a relaxing family dinner, before the entertaining, that would come with the arrival of clan leaders, and generals visiting to attend Caspian's Name Day.
"So," Raven started, "when do I get to have Caspian over night, I love you Abby and all but I am his favourite Aunt, I should get a turn too."
Clarke rolled her eyes and Lexa shook her head. "You will get a turn Ray, but his Grandma is only here for 3 more days. So we are giving them time together and she is his grandma lol. Stop fighting over our son." Clarke said.
"Raven, there is actually something we wanted to talk to you about. As you know Aden and Sierra are members of the High Council, Aden representing The Crown and Sierra representing Polis, we want you to join the High council, representing Skaikru. What do you think?"
"Will I get to wear that pretty Blue armour?" Raven asked pointing at Aden and Sierra's Armour.
Clarke rolled her eyes again, at Raven and Octavia slapped her arm.
"Ow, O, that hurt." Raven whined exaggerating. Sierra and Aden giggled, at Ravens performance.
"Raven, you are lucky you are with family, because your joking around, would lead anyone who didn't know you, to think you were not as smart as you are." Abby said. "You are better than this, you need to start showing the world, how amazing that big brain is and how amazing you are."
"I like when people underestimate me, besides everyone here knows me enough, to know, I am just clowning around." Raven said."What do I need to do, Lex?"
"You, along with the others on the high council, will make decisions on what the ambassadors bring to you, for discussion and any issues between clans, that doesn't involve death or war. And yes you get to wear the "pretty blue armour"." Lexa teased.
"Please join us, Raven, there will be so many old stiffs on this council, it would be good to have someone else young and fun." Sierra said.
"Well, youngish," Aden teased.
"Hey, I heard that," Raven mock glared at Aden, "well if I get to wear the "pretty Blue armour", how can I resist."
Everyone laughed at her.
"Go see Dalia, at the armoury tomorrow and get measured, for your armour, please." Lexa said.
"Well both my daughter's are in a power couple, I'm so proud. Kwin and Hedakwin, and High Council and General in Royal Guard. You better put a ring on Octavia's finger, pretty soon Raven. You don't want to loose her." Abby teased.
"Well, I have told her this, we all know I'm a catch," Octavia said with a hair flick.
"Pfft, she should propose to me. I'm a catch." Raven teased.
"Maybe I will, but only cause you have an in with my bosses." Octavia teased and everyone laughed.
It was 3 days later when all of the generals, started to arrive in the city. The blades, were finished being forged yesterday and delivered. Lexa was very happy with how they turned out. She decided, she would present them to the Natblidas, as they were leaving the city and then present the ones to the those staying at the same time.
Natblidas Blades
Aden and Sierra were proudly wearing their new Blue Armour, being asked questions and explaining the process to everyone who asked.
Quinn and Aria, had their new armour and sash belt and wore them proudly. Octavia said, their training was going well, they were eager to learn and we're learning fast.
Jax, Kali and Tara were all fitted with their new armour, fortunately Dalia, had some made in their sizes already. Cass had arrived early this morning, with Indra. Cass immediately took Tara for training, Indra requested she take Karl and Daria as well, Indra needed to report to Lexa, before meeting them at the training grounds. Luna arrived not long after, she was already travelling, so she could be at Caspian's name day ceremony. Luna decided to teach Kali the more political side of being a general and took her to meetings. Adrian and Skyla, arrived mid afternoon.
Along with Luna, Indra and Cass, Adrian decided to set up in an old building, an assassin training. They got a teddy bear from the markets and borrowed a few guards, as kidnappers and told their seconds, they had to rescue the teddy bear and restrain the guards. The seconds, worked together to formulate a plan and execute it with non lethal force. The training, went well and the first agreed they would like to incorporate, in their seconds training regularly.
Everyone, had decided to stay for Caspian's name day ceremony, so they were being housed in Heda's tower. The city, was filling up fast, as the plans for the name day ceremony, continued to be put in place
