(Aaand here come the timeskip! Congratulations badasses.)

Two months had passed since the newcomers initiation. And during that time they had all learnt their trade. Far more faster than first would have been anticipated of such people fresh in to the Beast Slayers. They knew how to handle the harpoon-maneuver gear, how to set up traps, how to best negotiate for assignments They all knew how to fight and how to act and rely upon each other once encountered by a Beast. Most importantly they all knew how to survive out in the wilderness when faced with dire situations in which they had no access to the supplies they were travelling with. Due to their shared experience with travelling to the keep under Ran'Jinro's guidance they were often referred to by others as "Ran's group".

During the time they had been training other recruits had been coming in, even more green than they had been. They also seemed to take more time to fully learn how to handle the equipment expected of them. But the former newcomers were now all fully-trained and ready. There was only one thing remaining for them to become accepted as Beast Slayers. An approval from Trymir himself... and not to mention the right to call themselves a slayer. Being a slayer meant that you had to have killed something. Preferably something gigantic.

Otherwise not much had changed around the keep. Has-Many-Teeth had a rat infestation in the workshop. Reman Cridus had to rework a whole month's sortiment worth of paperwork due to a clumsy new recruit who had accidentally spilled ink over the bundles. Evelyne was actively training at the archery range, eager to make herself worthy of her new title and Ran'Jinro was constantly seen lurking about in the back offices with Trymir. Whatever was said behind closed doors not even his own group knew. But presumably it had something to do with the fact during these two months they had been discreetly observed by Trymir himself. Almost as if he evaluating something based upon their skills.

This particular day the group found themselves once again sitting in the dining hall. Today's serving was mead-boiled meat loaf with honey-buttered bread and ale. Once they had all found the opportunity to enjoy their meals they were approached by Ran'Jinro.

The Khajiit looked a bit anxious. "The... high commander wants to see you." His eyes wandered over the group as a whole. "All of you", he remarked.
