Pfft! To young to participate? What garbage! She was plenty strong enough, but fine, if Integra wanted her to sharpen her skills then she would and it was high time she did some exploring…
Dagger's plan was going along well but she was growing restless after recovering from her poisoning at the paws of the Man Who Smells Funny. So far she had no leads to his location or her fathers but that was not going to deter Dagger, mightiest of warrioress'! She had the alliance of the Princess Rhys and maybe after the raid the princess would help her complete her training. Then… then she could finally rescue her father. He could help her hunt down her mother and they'd be a real family again…
Dagmær paused, her mind slipping unbidden from the fantasy she'd been painting as she stared at her blurred reflection in the mighty river. Anymore it was getting harder and harder to let her mind wander. She felt like the older she got the more she was tethered to the ground. Fantasies that seemed so close to reality as a child were slowly losing their luster. Dag sighed and pulled her focus to the front. Taking in the landscape around her and the sheer vastness of this river.
A sudden splash caught her attention and she turned to see a huge man leap into the river. Her head tilted to the side. Was he fishing? Caution told her it would not be wise to engage the man but curiosity won out. Surely if he seemed dangerous she could outrun him?
Prancing over to the edge she peered at him. "How's the water? Is the flow pretty strong?" She'd always been a rather gifted swimmer. Or at least that's what her mother told her but she'd never swam in anything quite this grand.
