[She sheathes her rapier, taking a moment to simply practice her footwork as she begins.]
I was sent to my nation's most acclaimed academy for alchemy and the arts of battle at the age of 13.
At the age of 17, I returned home to find my village overrun by raiders. Shortly after that, the Ecliptian-Lunian War began, and I found myself thrust into battle on a near constant basis.
I began as a lowly field medic. But, through the luck of the Gods and my own skill, I outlived my superiors and most of my peers.
A few years ago [-- she pirouettes backward at that moment, landing on the ball of her left foot --] I had command of the very brigade in which I had enlisted.
...for the record... [She laughs, drawing her sword with a flourish.] I'm 35 now.
