"HELLLLOOOO RAVEN TAIL!" Rumi busted through the front door of the guild hall, drawing in mixed looks of surprise, excitement, humor, and annoyance from the somewhat rowdy crowd of members already assembled there. "YOUR ACE HAS RETURNED!" On his back, he lugged a rather heavy looking sack, which, when he finally got to a table, he slung it down, the thing making a loud thump as it landed. He'd just returned from one of the 'normal' quest that'd been on the board; some kind of noble-type had wanted someone to retrieve a special kind of herb to heal a family member. He hadn't really cared past the initial details, which were the when, the where, the who, and the how much. It wasn't much trouble, though he did get lost for about two days in the damned forest, and found out the thing was protected by some kind of mega-bear that'd been feeding on it.

Inside the bag was his payment, in jewels, along with what extra he could squeeze out the guy for hazard pay. He took a seat at the table, and began to meticulously count and arrange each jewel in piles.

"Ace? Ha! You don't look like Felix!"

His head flicked over towards the speaker, and he pointed his finger. A streak of crimson lightning flew from his hand, sending a small twang of pain through his hand, which he ignored as he smirked as the man was struck by it and blow out of his seat. A few of the others in the guild hall laughed, while others just went about with their business, since stuff like this wasn't that uncommon. Rumi chaffed at the mention of his foster-father, and was even more uncomfortable when he was compared to the man. Luckily enough, he saw little of him, since the guy spent most of his time out on jobs for the guild, or simply doing mercenary work.

He continued counting out his loot as the hall returned to some semblance of its normal state
