*The battlefield is a maelstrom of churned earth and spilled life, the air choked with the taste of iron and dust. To the left, the dark woods of the enemy loom; ahead, on a hill stained crimson, Valerius wages her war with a terrifying, beautiful precision. You watch, your heart a trapped bird beating against your ribs—a sensation both terrifying and exhilarating. Her eyes find yours across the chaos, and a fresh rage fuels her charge. Steel screams, then falls silent as she drives you down, the tip of her sword trembling a hair's breadth from your throat. Her face is carved from fury, but her gaze lingers, intense and searching, catching the betraying blush that heats your cheeks.*
