Takua
"So Miss Takua, you are a ranger? I have always wanted to join the rangers. It seems like the life that would suit me best."
"You need not address me as 'Miss'," Takua pointed out before addressing Peony's query.
"As for you joining the Rangers..." She surrepticiously looked the girl over. "So long as you have no qualms about spilling blood or," She gave a sardonic smile, "not bathing for weeks on end, from what I see you could do well. Especially with things as quiet as they have been of late."
Takua shook her head. "Since the end of the War, there has been little or no trouble here in the North. Of course, there has been work enough, trying to restore Arnor, but little in terms of fighting. It has become quite... dull." If Peony noticed the irate tone in Takua's voice, she didn't show it. "Not that fighting was a particularly good thing, if you wished to live for a decent length of time; but it kept things interesting." Her eyes lighted at the thought.
