Sora heavily considered Riu's words. She couldn't imagine dedicating 2000 years - that sounded like a lot, to overthrowing a tyrant. Then again she spent her entire life throwing out unwanted conquerors. She both was and wasn't a resistance fighter. She resisted any and all attempts by others to claim her village and the land it rested on, but she really couldn't do anything to put an end to the senseless violence. No one knew how to end the war. The two sides always seemed so evenly matched, one would get the upper hand every now and again but the other would rise back up to the challenge eventually. She figured she could tell the dragon woman at lest what her part was in all this and why there were men after her - not that she ever fully understood it herself. She simply listened to what her Mother had told her so many years ago. A promise was a promise after all and she would keep her promise.<br/><br/>"I am a resistance fighter... sort of. My Mother, Lily, came to this area a long, long time ago. Forgive me because time is not the forte of any feline. She was called here by the war and wanting to tend to all the wounded. She set up in a village known as Serenity. She traveled a lot, following plagues and whatnot to provide relief and help and curb the spread among other things. Eventually, after I was born she settled here permanently. She said she discovered something in our little village that if Maenon got a hold of it would mean the complete destruction of Tianguo. She never told me what it was but she said that the village needed to be protected and kept as free territory. She healed everyone that came to her needing it, from either side, and she protected the village with her barriers. She trained me to do the same. The last thing I ever promised her was that I would keep the village safe in her stead - and i have." She says to Riu.<br/><br/>"So in essence, I sort of fight back by putting on band aides. I heal all those that come to me, and I keep the village of Serenity safe and free. I have most of this area wired so that I can avoid the soldiers from either side that take to hunting me. Occasionally they up my bounty. It doesn't really bother me though. They haven't succeeded yet and i don't plan to let them. I have a promise to keep after all. I'm not really the gung-ho rebellious sort I'm afraid." She gives Riu a bit of a sheepish smile here. She wasn't really the sort of guerrilla fighter that went in and took down nations and what not...
