Another week flew by like a breeze, with all four of us further honing and developing our skills whilst we studied for the History final.
During that week Jahi received a letter from back home, and it was informing her that sometime soon a trusted subordinate of the Marquess would come knocking at our door.
From the letter we learned that said subordinate was the Marquess' Squire, who was training to become a Knight of Cinder.
She was a Djinn, which were a race of elementally attuned beings that had astounding magical prowess.
However, this woman wasn't a normal Djinn; she was a hybrid between a Djinn and an Orc, and she received the immense physical prowess from her Orc Mother whilst also retaining the magic talent from her Djinn Mom.
Of course, where there is too much good there is always something to balance it out, and Nirina, the Marquess' Squire, was apparently much like the Marquess herself; brash, loose tongued, and lustful.
