Who am I without my armor?
The muffin set aside was given a long, stern glance. But Aino noticed the shift in Sah's mood, and listened to his explanation with a stoic expression. If he had expected shock or devastation, the young man would be left disappointed. She was a soldier, after all; calls to arms was par for the course.
No, the woman's only real response was a snort as she shook her head. "War, eh. Once again the high divines have found something to squabble over." She gave Sah a long, searching look. "You're not getting yerself dragged into that whole mess, are you? I know you're young and hot blooded and all of that, but just because they say there will be a war doesn't mean you have to fight in it."
Almost demonstratively she reached for another muffin. She would absolutely not let the topic spoil her appetite, or ruin Sah's surprise by not savoring the rare treat.
