Chrysalis
Chapter 615
Titus hated dressing up. But the Golgari High Blades were notorious sticklers for protocol and tradition, so his hands were tied. He'd be damned if he'd put on his full dress uniform though, absolutely no chance. The jumped up pile of rocks would have to be satisfied with him giving his armour a solid polish. So it was that in the final hours of the bridge relay being assembled, Titus took off his elaborate Legion Runic Armour, sat in front of the command tent and attended to the buckles, plates and stone whilst directing his Legion.
His hands worked the leather straps, polished the buckles and cleaned the stone almost automatically, not really having to look at what he was doing, his eyes instead roving over the camp. There wasn't a single Legionary with five years of experience who couldn't clean their armour in their sleep, and Titus had far more than that.
When the job was done, he put the suit back on, almost feeling a sense of relief when the final plate snapped into place, sealing him in.
"Feeling more comfortable commander?" Alberton asked from his seat nearby.
Titus shrugged his shoulders, feeling the heavy suit fall into place on his frame.
"It doesn't feel right being in the field without being armoured up," Titus said.
He performed a few rapid checks with hands, pulling on a plate here, shoving with his palms there, testing the joints and straps. The Loremaster frowned.
"Be careful of the mana …" he began.
"I know," Titus cut him off and continued his meticulous checks.
Alberton was silent for a moment before he continued quietly.
"I worry sometimes, old friend. Just be careful."
Titus didn't look up from his inspection and after a long moment Alberton sighed and rose from his seat, checking every strap and seal on the back of the suit.
"Flawless as always commander," he said, slapping him on the pauldron with one wrinkled hand.
"Are you going to suit up?"
The Loremaster snorted.
"What for? My Skills are in research and documents, not swords and sorcery."
Titus turned and looked his friend in the eye.
