AINO
She had actually been asleep. But the moment the banging on doors and shouting about dragons started up, Aino was wide awake. Rolling out of her bed, she was dressed and out of the door in a heartbeat, sword in hand and hair flying wildly in an unbraided mess.
"Anyone who can't fight, gather in the Barracks! Grab food and blankets, and proceed in calm order!" Her voice added to the cry as she joined in with Sah. Tuomas and his family would see to Ilma, they had that worked out already - so her own focus was fixed solely on the other citizens, with only an occasional glance spared to the night sky.
Fucking dragons... this was the third in as many years! Someone would need to cull the Draig soon, though who those poor sods would be, she didn't have time to think about.
"Sah! Good to see you," she said, and spared a moment to pat her friend on the back. "Look for Deimos and listen to orders, but don't be a bloody hero, okay?" It went for all of them. The first law of Halo had always been to survive, above all else.
Now was the time.

Come and conquer, drop your bombs
Cross my borders and kill the calm
Cross my borders and kill the calm
