Aurelia
I never had a chance to be soft
I was always bloody knuckles and shards of glass
I was always bloody knuckles and shards of glass
His tentacle scar looked painful. She scratched her arm at the thought of what that wound must've felt like. It made her wonder about other kinds of creatures that might lurk in the depths of Caido. They didn't seem to walk the land like the ones she was used to, but apparently there were monsters just as dangerous and hungry as any. Perhaps they waited for the flies to walk into their web, rather than pursue the chase.
Aurelia recalled the other girl on the ship. She had a mess of red, wavy hair and a well-intentioned naivety that was admirable. At least, from what Aurelia could tell. There was melancholic fondness in Aurelia's expression as she nodded, "The one with red hair? She reminds me a bit of my sisters.. I had no idea, you two don't look much alike."
When Sunjata added that she was welcome to come back and train there at the Slagveld, Aurelia nodded. There was a sudden realization that the sky outside had darkened into a burnt orange color. She looked back at Sunjata and let out a long sigh, "Well, in that case, you'll be seeing more of me around here. I've gotta stay sharp somehow. Maybe one of these days I'll see you in the ring?" Of course, she didn't mean 'see' as a spectator. She smiled and stood up, instantly feeling a little light-headed. Nonetheless, she would be fine - especially after a sobering walk back to the ship. Extending her gloved hand out across the desk, she continued, "It's been... eye-opening, Sunjata, to say the least. I should get back before it's dark,"
She would add a quiet, "thank you" just before leaving through the door.

I wanted people to be afraid of hurting me
