     "Aphmau! Hey!" I holler out, grabbing her attention. Her pale lips form into a curve. She reaches out, wiping away a loose strand of black hair. "Y/N, it's so nice to see you here. How's the village treating you?"
     "It's been great! Say, since I have nothing better to do.. Perhaps, I could help you?" She makes her way over from the stone platform.

     She squealed right in front of me. Did I do something wrong? Or is she just too thrilled by the offer. This is probably where Kawaii~Chan gets it from. Fixing her posture, she tries again coming out less eager.
     "Yes! That would be absolutely wonderful right about now. I'm building a guard station for my first guard in command, Garroth. It's going to be a little surprise!" Seems nifty. But its so thoughtful of her to present it to the head guard. You can tell that she cares for every single being in this village.

     "Great! What would you like me to start on?" She thinks for a minute. "How about the walls on the first floor?" She hands me some stone bricks, leaving me to get right to work.

     We finished the guard station. It isn't anything much, but the rooms surely have a lot of space. This Garroth dude should like it. It would be nice to meet him one of these days, not that he'll care or anything!..
Maybe he's willing enough to let me become a guard here.. Ugh, if it means protecting the village I'd take the chance in a heartbeat. It's the least I could do, even with all of the troubles it might bring. I should qualify, Father's training might as well be put to work. Like his feasible self said, "You have better put some good use to this at some point."  It's something I'd need to think about. 

     "Hello, Y/N I presume.." A deep voice says. A full suit of armor stands in front of me, well won't you speak of the devil..

     "Yeah.." His helm tops it off, keeping everything out from the inside covered in darkness. Rubbing the back of his neck, I quit my staring.. Oh boy this is awkward.

     "So I-I wanted to ah.. Thank you for taking part in building the new guard station. I-It means a lot to me."
"Oh it was nothing honestly, Aphmau had the idea, but thank you. It was the least I could do. For thanking me I mean.." He picks up his shield. "Well, I'll see you around I guess."

     "Yeah, see you around." He walks off. Leaving me standing here. My heels turn, on with my day then! Maybe I should go around and meet everyone else around here.
