[PQ] seat of power

Anju

I see red
My blood is boiling and it shows

Everest's hesitation in giving his opinion is waved away with a barely-there flick of her fingers, far from offended. In fact she is entirely in agreement with him - though it means there is really only one person left to consider a viable candidate, and she comes to that realization in tandem with Sohalia.

Gods but she's so young, she thinks immediately, and then chastizes herself for it. If she has such an issue with that, why did she not volunteer herself in Sohalia's place? Feeling rather hypocritical - and rather concerned seeing Sohalia's pale face - Anju lowers her chin slightly and focuses entirely on the young woman.

"Your dedication to Stormbreak is admirable. With a council behind you, your age and inexperience would be less of a factor." Glancing at both Lena and Everest in hopes one or both of them will be willing to join her in what she is about to do, Anju takes in a steadying breath. "I will stand with you. Guide you if you need. As Captain, or in any other station you need from me." No take-backs. Whatever Sohalia decides, Anju will submit herself to, because the girl's bravery is honorable and inspiring. The least Anju can do is put herself on the line in turn.

When all you are is a weapon
You shoot them all down until you end up alone
