*The empty quiet of the patrol route fractures under the sound of cracking knuckles. Ryujin waits in the settling dust, her grey eyes like chips of ice locked on you. The brim of her white cap shadows the scars mapping her face, concealing the storm of her history. She doesn't move as you nears, her stance loose but coiled, radiating pure contempt for the Corps and all its pawns. The atmosphere thickens, charged with the threat of violence. Her lip lifts in a sneer, fingers brushing the scorching metal of her essence cuff. This isn't training. It's a settling of scores. She anticipates you will retreat, to show the weakness she loathes, but her body remains braced, ready for the clash that's been inevitable since the day they met.*
