Following this conversation was a couple hours worth of travel, before they arrived in termina, the city of promises.
--- Chapter 5 ---
As the cart comes to a halt before a giant and grand building, Red hops out of the cart and walks toward an oldman standing outside
Red:Hey ma-
Before he can finish his sentence, the old man disappears, and reappears in front of Red and punches him right in the stomach, sending him flying
Master?: What took you so long! That was a C-Rank! You should have been back hours ago!
Red: It was hours awayyy!
He says in a whining tone
Master?: You had brander as your transportation, NO excuses!
Hiro and Ame try to sneak away, to avoid the master's wrath. But to no avail
Master?: And where do you think you're going.
He says with a stern voice, and a rush of fear runs over there face.
Ame: We were just um-
Master?: Your an S-Class! You should be setting an example to our new recruit
Luna: … Wait me?! How did you-
Master?: I can see the future!
He says proudly, putting one foot forward and rubbing his nose with a smile
Luna: Wow that's incredible-
Red: What a liar! This old geezer doesn't have future sight!
Master: What did you call me
An aura radiates off of him, but Red doesn't seem to care
Red: You heard what I said! Plus it was her that told you luna was coming wasn't it!
He points to a kid in the doorway of the building
Master: Oh yah? Wanna go hot shot!
Red: Yah! Anytime!
Unlawfully taken from Royal Road, this story should be reported if seen on Amazon.
Red darts at the master, to which the master responds by punching him in the face. Red goes flying but he keeps running back and receiving the same fate
Luna: Uh, is he gonna be ok?
Ame: Uh, yah he should be fine
Master: Oh, moon you should head inside and meet everyone.
Luna: Me? My names luna
Master: Wait but the cards said
???: All I said was her name was related to the moon card. Not the her name was moon
Master: Oh
He says with an embarrassed face, but then goes back to punching red.
Ame: Ok lets get inside Luna
As she walks in she is met by a rowdy but colorful cast of characters, with playful yet rough fighting in the corner, the occasional tray of food being thrown but overall just a happy yet crazy vibe.
Luna: Oh boy, this is gonna be something
??? 2: Oh is that the new girl Tilda told us about with her cards?
Ame: Yup
Hiro: She's one of us now
Luna: Wait- WHAT! I am? I don't have to take a test or anything, or be strong or-
Ame: Nope, if the master says you can you can, simple as that.
Ame leans in to whisper into Lunas ear
Ame: Plus your not the weakest one here
Luna: I see. I know she was trying to make me feel better but she basically still said I'm weak, just not the weakest.
The little girl starts to walk back inside with her deck of cards
Luna: So you're a fortune teller?
Tilda: Yup, want me to read your fortune?
Luna: Really? That would be awesome!
They sit down while she shuffles her deck of tarot cards
Tilda: Ok im just going to draw three cards and lay them out and it will predict your future
Luna: Ok
Tilda sets down the deck and pulls the three cards. She places the first card on the table. The card bore a skull, and the title “Death 13”.
Luna: Um that just means like my fear or my weakness will die or be purged right… Right?
Tilda: It means you will come into great harms here Luna, be careful
She said this without the childish nature she had before. Just clear, stern spoken words
Hiro: OOOK time to get some juice Tilda
Tilda: But she still has two cards
Hiro: She probably had a long day. Plus it's her first day here so lets give her some space.
Tilda: But-
Hiro: Maybe we can sweet talk her into giving us some root beer with ice cream on top
He says with a smile
Tilda: Yah! Maybe even two scoops!
Hiro: Ok sweet tooth lets go.
Ame: you had a long day, i'll show you to your room
Luna: yah, ok thanks
They walk through the halls of this place, and they finally arrive
Ame: Ok here's your room, though you do have a roommate
Luna: That's fine, I could use the company. Thanks Ame
Ame: Yup no problem
Ame leaves Luna to rest.
Luna opens up the door, to see this room is decked out with stuffed animals. In the far right corner, there's a bunk bed with a girl who seems no more than 13, with a stuffed bear tucked in her arm reading what looks to be a graphic novel
???: Who are you and what are you doing in my room?
Luna: Oh uh i was told i was your new roommate
???: I see, you take the bottom bunk and dont touch my stuffies and we will be alright
Luna: It really is kinda stuffy in here with all those things
???: You look like your thinking meanly about my stuffies and I don't like it
Luna: Holy crap how I did she know?
???: Ok time for sleep turn off that light
Luna: But i haven't even unpacked yet-
This girl flashes these adorable child like eyes
???: But i'm so tired
Luna: I- guess I can unpack tomorrow
???: Cool thanks goodnight
Luna turns the light off and goes in the bottom bunk. She pulls out her diary and uses her arcana to create a small ball of light

Today was interesting to say the least. I made some new friends at a tavern, and they happened to be in Elune. They gave me a ride so I didn't have to walk. They are a very colorful cast to say the least. I think i'm gonna like it here. I hope I can make you proud, mom, dad. I can't wait to see where this journey takes us
