The Order of the Ancients took notice of Leofgifu's activities and thus recruited her. Making use of her position as a valued mercenary, Leofgifu began amassing an arsenal of weapons for the Order and quickly insulated herself into a position of command by distributing luxury goods to fellow officers, such that they would turn a blind eye to her illegal acts.
