Summary: She's eighteen the day she's assigned to Pleisar Regiment.
Notes: Written for writing_game prompt "origin."
She's eighteen the day she's assigned to Pleisar Regiment. The leathers of her uniform are still stiff, not yet worn in, her hair pulled back as tightly as she could manage. The captain looks at her, nods, and she has to try not to smile.
The first man she kills isn't a man at all, a Luxan savage, and she tells herself she doesn't feel a thing as he collapses in front of her. The day is hectic, and she stops counting after her third; she isn't a child, any more.
She's going to be a great Peacekeeper one day.
