-Reporting to Baelsar's wall-

Crow finally makes it to the gates of Baelsar's wall while avoiding serpent sentries. His wounds from his job did not make the journey a pleasant one but the eventual payout will make it worth while.

As he approaches the gates, Empire guards immediately surround him and begin to threaten him

"Look what we have here everyone, it seems we have someone who wants to try and play hero. You do know where you are right? no amount of armor or weaponry will protect you from our- Crow cuts in.

"Asset Crow here to report about completion of operations and to retrieve payment for success. Identification number is 9230114, cleareance level red, I believe your commander is expecting my arrival and I suggest you let them know I have arrived." The guards give pause and look at each other recognizing the ways of identification and one quickly puts his hand to his ear, after a few moments he waves the other guards to get back to their post and signals to the Crow that he can proceed. Crow walks past them without the slightest hesitation and enters the facility to see numerous magitek machinery and empire soldiers moving about, to Crow their seemed far more activity than usual and thought musingly to himself that more money may be coming his way sooner than he thought.

Arriving at the commanders facility he removes his helmet and leaves his weapon with the guard posted outside as was proper procedure. After a time waiting in the lobby his called in via PA to enter the commanders room.

"Crow you have done good work, my soldiers are reporting in about the operation and aside from the predictable skirmish that came about there were no casualties on our side, add on to the fact a priestess of Rhalgr was secured and it is quite clear this operation you suggested has yielded great benefits in the battles to come."

Crow gives the commander an imperial salute, although he was not imperial military he was a professional who wanted to please his clients whenever the opportunity may arise to perhaps ring in a bit more gil.

"Ah so the priestess made it here, good I was a bit worried a mishap could have occurred en route but the empire once more shows its capabilities to succeed."

The commander nods before continuing "As outlined in the contract you will receive full payment for this operation as well as the bonus for the securing of the priestess. You may have seen the up tick in activity here, things on the other side of the wall are beginning to intensify and as such a large deployment of troops from here will be sent out to reinforce them. Although there are no details right now the higher ups are determining your next assignment and the proper pay for it. Until word is received you are to remain on standby in Baelsar's wall, that will be all."

Crow gives one more salute before leaving the room and subsequently the building, he retrieves his weapon and makes way to the medical facility to have his wounds treated while contemplating what his new assignment may be as well as the possible money he could be earning if it involves direct deployment into war zones. He thinks back to the time he was contracted during the doman rebellion and can only look forward to what the Ala Mhigans may offer as opponents.

(Side Note:Any thing my character does on the wall will be highly dependent on the events of 3.5 whether or not I can participate we will see but I got plans if it is not feasible.)
((Spoiler tag cause of some reference to events in 3.5 so far))
