you won’t see me fall apart
Thorunn only knew war.
Not true war, not the war her father saw through orange slanted eyes, not the type that caused scars like he had. Thorunn lacked the spiderwebs that crossed the hide of true warriors, she had nothing to show except the scar along the side of her face. That wasn't from war, that was from her own stupidity.
Still, diplomacy wasn't something that was taught to her. She didn't know how to make her words seem anything less than abrasive and useless, falling off her tongue in strange syllables. She always managed to offend and upset for some reason, she rarely left others with a savory impression.
So, she'll do what she knows - war. She seeks out the leader of the army (thank you, welcome committee) and presents herself with a curt nod and a clearing of her throat. "Hello, I'm Thorunn - I'd like to join the army."
