The loud clang of swords and thumps of wooden shields echoed the chilled air. This was  FUN ---- it made Runa felt powerful. She showed no interest in the strength of politics; this was something her father wanted to partake in, to become an earl of sorts. Runa’s form of dominion displayed in her might against Hedeby’s men and pushing them to the ground.

 However, she felt otherwise now that her opponent had pushed her on her back. A flash of panic echoed through her body, and she struggled to get to her feet as the other continued to stand their ground. There was no way that she was going to win this scrimmage. “I give! I give!” Panic left her lips, and the man moved off of her, a grin of pride fell on his face. She longed to wipe it off his visage, but she was too tired to do so. Instead, she stayed there in the dirt, and she felt a pair of eyes on her.

“What?” she asked the individual, moving her gaze toward the staring individual. “If you wanted to poke fun at my failure, go ahead. It won’t be the first.”

    Jeong was fond of the cool, spring ocean spray breaking against Hedeby’s rocky shore. But this? This was far from cool. It was frigid. Pulling her furs close, Jeong trotted forth on her horse, who snorted at the snowflakes that fell so gingerly on his mighty nose.

    Pulling his trot to a stop, Jeong dismounted from her steed, brushing at a few flakes that crusted her ebony hair, “What fun,” She smacked her icy fingers together, digging them into the snow. If you can’t beat them, join them, after all. Hands trembling, she molded a snowball, smacking it into the neck of the nearest person ahead of her.
