Kalliope sat in the back of carriage that her family placed her in for the trip to Fort Sella. It was only a day's ride by carriage so they were likely only a short ways away now.
Her family's compound was most close to Fort Sella, but was essentially in the middle of nowhere. It was isolated and peaceful, such was the case with all the great clans.
The road was uneven and rough, so much so that it might have been as comfortable, if not more, just to sit on an actual horse. However, this was something her father insisted on. He did not want anyone to see that he was sending his daughter to the fort. The officers inside were aware of the plan to have her train in real combat there, but other clans did not need to know that information.
