before the fray

pre-dated thread before the invasion! for @phantom but anyone can pop in :)

By day, Leucothoë lingered at the Seas edge. Soon the battle would come. The silver girl was no warrior, but she was at the very least versed in defensive maneuvers and a fighting style that suited her stature. The youth was quick. The Sea and Amazons had taught her the basics.

Even now, the sterling youth could see the Moon in the sky. Her lips moved as she sought guidance, and the Sea lapped at her toes in a comforting manner. She did not look forward to leaving this place for battle, but to protect their own she certainly would.
