The time Deon saw her in the open field he was impressed with the sparkled eyes with curiosity. However, the girl in front of her was not the same.
Her eyes were dull and they shift between blank or unfocused. ‘The experience in Argenti was not kind to her.’
He left her in the arena to get some food for himself. He was informed by Babak that she is a girl. Thus it was not tough for him to take her in. At first, he thought this girl would at best turn into Babak’s apprentice. When she started to show improvement he got interested but the incident with the transfer recruits changed the situation. He missed all others.
After her enrolment, a second letter arrived from General Baliyo with the information of the trial. While all other instructors were against the enrolment of an under-trial candidate, Deon took her in as his apprentice. He thought he will the same feature as a friendly candidate but she shut herself in only appearing for food time and practice.
