Dacian, on the contrary, Aleister has much longer to go in his journey before he gets anywhere close to knight level. While he has been around awhile, he has by far not actually trained much in actual ABILITY, he's only gotten the philosophy so far. So, Until I feel comfortable with him having gone over the force abilities i don't intend to ask for any kind of promotion.
Contrary to popular belief i'm not just here to gain Master rank... I did everything I could with Han, but, with Aleister he's but in his infancy... Rushing him through promotion levels would not do the character or his story, justice, which would be an insult to myself, and those i write with.
