It’s just not FAIR.
Why does Lexa get to help out with the war? Lexa’s not that much older, and it’s not like she even knows how to fight! It’s SO not fair.
Larken grumbles to herself for several minutes after her sister leaves, taking her anger out on the occasional shrub and bush. She’s almost two now after all! Her mother should let her join in the fight!!
Then an idea occurs to her.
She could still join in. She doesn't have to listen to her mother. She could just pretend to … and if Lyris never sees her there, she’ll never know. She’ll just have to be careful.
Larken slips away when none of the remaining sisters are watching, and makes a beeline straight for the Chamber. It’s pretty easy to tell that’s where they’re heading - the scent trails lead right to the enemy kingdom. She crosses the border without pause, and soon comes across the scene of the battle. She forcefully knocks against something as she bursts out of the trees, but she’s too occupied by the sight in front of her to pay attention.
“Wooahh …” Larken’s eyes widen at the sight. Blood and bodies are flying everywhere crashing into each other with wild abandon. Animals are interspersed throughout the battle, fire is everywhere, light keeps shooting out from a bay mare (that she vaguely recognizes as an Amazon sister), and freaking DRAGONS are flying over head. “So cool!”
Someone should probably get her head checked.
She realizes abruptly that she’s not alone in watching the battle. The thing that she’d bumped into was well, not exactly a thing. A tiger in fact. Crap. “Er …” Larken takes a few tentative steps back, while lowering her head into a defensive position. She might’ve bitten off a little more than she can chew.
(TLDR: Larken is dumb kid, goes to watch battle, runs into Ribcage. Whoops!)
