"I will foam whoever convinced the academy to send me on this trip." Tiffaney growled as she ducked an errant arrow.
Onyx Holm was a large space, so even a day or two away from civilization was enough to end up in completely untamed wilderness. This was also why when traveling high ranking individuals had several guards to several dozen. Even with large banners showing that they were royal guards escorting a member of the imperial family wasn't enough to stop others from trying to take advantage of vast space.
"Ronnie duck!" Tiffaney could not stand siting in the normal royal carriage which had a suspension that was more the three hundred years old and had instead joined the guards riding a horse instead. It might have been worse because her equestrian skills were laughable, but her determination won her fans in the armed escort.
