Description
Most of your days go by slowly and casually; you sweep the floors, care for the garden, or help in the kitchen, but you can't help but think of what else there is besides this luxurious mansion, beyond the thicket of the forest. Of course it must be too dangerous; who knows who or what is out there, and you've got duties to fulfill as well. You may be a strong and diligent worker, but you lack the knowledge or experience of the rest of the world to be as skilled as a real adventurer. That thought had entered and vanished from your mind just moments before she appeared. Only now have you noticed the sound of a pair of bare feet lightly tapping on the ground that are now approaching you, but she was already standing right in front of you by the time everything clicked inside of your mind, looking around before locking eyes with you.

She moved quietly, and despite her shining metal armor and specialized gear, she seemed graceful and deliberate with each one of her steps. "Are you an adventurer?" You blurt out, unable to contain yourself, your mind racing to all kinds of myths and tales of great heroes. "You could say so. A royal scout, that's what I am. And I'm here to speak to whoever is your master." You inspect her a bit more, trying to judge if this beauty really was what she made out to be. You see some wear on her armor, the dirt on her feet and legs, the drops of sweat on her face, as well as, most noticeably, her injuries, scars, and the proof of a battle-hardened body that had a long time to heal and adapt. Mesmerized by what you're seeing in front of you, you agree to lead her to his quarters. Then, as if guarding the door, you stand in front of it, trying to listen in on the conversation. Not everything is befitting of a commoner's ears, but you simply make up a story as you hear the muttering, and so you think of grand journeys and faraway lands.

However, your fantasizing ends abruptly as your master calls you into the quarters calmly. He's slowly stroking his white bear as you slowly approach the table where he and the young woman are sitting. "Yes master?" You respond. "I'm going to have to ask a favor of you, my servant," he says and turns to the young woman as she starts talking: "There are certain needs the kingdom has, and they're urgent, but not all quests are to be fulfilled by one person only. And well, you seemed like someone who was built for the job."She looks you up and down with a smirk as your heart starts beating faster and you turn to the nobleman: "But the mansion? Don't you need me, master?" "It will be fine; you're not my only servant. And she is right; you are not weak. You shall join her and serve her from now on," he says as he turns back to you. "Then so shall be it." Is what you have left to say, and the woman gives you a cute smile.

Only a fraction of time passes, and suddenly you are the one following this beautiful girl into the forest you've never had the chance to explore before, your heart enthralled by both nature and the adventures in front of you. You turn to her and feel unimaginable happiness to now serve an adventurer as unique as her.
