Dravis Rosilla
By Candlelight
CHASIN CITY, COMMENOR
Than had slipped into command seamlessly. One might assume the ex-Republic Senior Lieutenant would be over his head, transitioning from command of a single escort frigate to an entire battlegroup. Quite the opposite was the case, as Than took to it like a fish to water. It was a homecoming for Lieutenant Balthor.
No, Admiral Balthor.
The menial deskwork he had been given to finalize his position was the only downside, far outweighed by everything else in the days passed since his first meeting with Queen Arenais and General Santiago. He quickly realized he and the general agreed on a great many things about Commenor's forces, and the lack thereof. He was informed of his position, and got to see the vessel he would be in direct command of. It was a Commenori Reciever, gargantuan in proportion, something he had never dared to dream he would ever command.
Now, he had that, and an entire battlegroup. It was a lot of responsibility for one man who had only a week prior been directionless. Responsibility Than was more than ready for.
It had been after meeting the officers under him that he received a message from the Palace. The Queen, no less, asking for a meeting. The Admiral wasn't surprised, and sent a cordial response.
Arriving at the gates, Than awaited for someone to show him in.
