Camu is Finally Taking the Spotlight, But Not Enough
So the implausibilities just keep piling up, making it increasingly hard to get through these stories.
The group is singled out above any rangers with 20 or more years of experience to be the king's elite of the elite troops, aka the Eagle, then they are allowed to disappear for advanced training for multiple seasons, more than a year, without the self-centered king interrupting or calling on them for a single mission.
The huge dragon ice sculpture melts causing a huge flood at the most memorable landmark in the entire sanctuary valley, and no one notices for days, despite elite training requiring running, hunting, and other activities that involve traveling throughout the valley.
The group is in training for over a year, but never even talks to a "regular" elite specialist in training a single time.
The entire group gets one or more specialties, despite some of them previously not even qualifying for a single speciality. And none of the regular qualified specialty trainees even gets considered for the new training methods.
Lasgol and Astrid's relationship seems "stuck" for over a year, which is unlikely for young love. Ingrid and Viggo at least start disappearing for entire nights pretty often.
The only thing really good about this story is Camu's developing personality and maturation to making more decisions for himself.
