A Stray Dog And Its New Home

"In here, you should belong to a cell"
The though laid idly in her mind, surfacing from time to time like an obvious truth. That was what anyone else around her thought​ as well, probably, she knew it. She just couldn't put her finger on how she felt about it. Bad? No, that couldn't be... she was used to worst things than scorn or judgment, afterall. So what was it? Why was she finding herself worrying about feelings at all?
She was oath-bound now, she needed to focus on that and that only.
Oath-bound... Right. Why did she do that, again? She found herself asking this question as well, every time she woke up and before passing out at night. Good question. Of course she had an answer as well, she just didn't like it.
"Just follow the orders and you'll be fine. You're good at that.
Follow the orders, and if you're lucky, at some point you might even die while doing so."

The assignment Namer Kyum had been appointed with proved to be more annoying than expected. Cycles after her Oath ceremony, the Cambion was still never seen in the barracks, her bed empty ever since, giving the impression she didn't understand she had to be there, or that she was just ignoring that part on purpose until someone gave her a clear order.
Nonetheless, she did show up every morning when training was due, but for the entire time, she shadowed Daniss almost as if her main duty was to follow the Namer around rather than training herself, a sign she probably misunderstood Factor Andor's words, to some extent.
At least she was quiet. A bit creepy, in her habit of standing perfectly still, or the way her fully red eyes stared, apparently without focus given the lack of any human feature in them.
She seemed rather polite as well, or at least she tried her best to be, despite her generally rough attitude. Didn't help she just seemed to disappear as soon as it was clear they were "free to go", making the entire "evaluation" thing a bit exasperating...
