Lion Head Mesa Learn to Be Lonely

this warrior was more boy than anything, satsu thought. she tried not to smile too deeply as he spoke, wanting very much to be cheeky with him - you got the fool part out of the way with me! something told her it would not be appreciated. better to be poised and level-headed. this was not her brother, this was not pharaoh. this was a subject she was meant to rule.
