To the Perdan Mines

Isana blew a dark strand of hair from her face and quickly scanned the new orders.

Move out.

A mixed blessing. Moving out meant that finally they would be breaking the stalemate in the capital and doing something. On the other hand, leaving the capital meant an end to the string of pleasant training bouts with other nobles of Perdan. She’d very much been enjoying the chance to meet her fellows. Even when her sword arm was like a gate left untended for seasons: rusty at best. Training also meant an easy outlet to blow off steam and some of the quietly building nerves borne of being in an entirely new place, weeks’ travel from everything familiar. It wasn’t as if there were a choice to make at the moment, however.

“What orders, dame?” he asked attentively.

She set a brisk pace toward the barracks. “Travel and possible combat on the morrow. We move out in half a mark. Cedric, I need you to gather all the full quivers you can find in case it’s a busy trip.”

The lanky page snapped a quick salute, “With your leave, milady?”

“On your way, Ced. No time to spare.”
