Five Thousand Club
The Vigil: the island fortress that the Vigilants have called home for numerous centuries. It is a massive complex, complete with farms, sleeping quarters, everything that is needed to be fully self-sufficient. Trading with the Vigil is non-existent, leaning to speculation that the rock it is built on is rich in ore. Nevertheless, awakened shards that are able to be saved from shattering are brought there to learn, to harness the powers that their shard gives them, to train to fight. Those who are brought in at similar times are sometimes brought together in squads, as the camaraderie is a stronger force than isolation.
Asila was a part of one of those squads, sharing living quarters and training time, learning to fight as a squad as well as how to maneuver to isolate their quarry. She was always up early, before the crack of dawn, but she had barely slept the night before — not that she needed that much. The Truestar Aeteron watched the sun as it rose, waiting for her new family to wake. Today would be the first time in years that they left the Vigil — since they arrived, in fact. One final test and then they would be free to protect the world at large...
She couldn't wait!
