[ The feed comes into focus on the background, before it's picked up by the user of the locket. A stern woman -- not one seen in a long time appears in the foreground. She nods, brushes a strand of hair from her face. ]

Greetings. I can't say that the timing of my arrival here has been... kind. But seeing as I have been here for a few weeks and it looks that I will not be going anywhere again -- I have no wish to sit idly. I was a leader before, Captain of the Guard of the city I served in. Even if I am not so by name here, for this effort I thought I had best help as I can.

[ Even if she does not entirely agree with the idea of the war -- and getting involved. ] 

My name is Aveline Hendyr, and I was here before. Much has seemed to have changed in the time that I was away, however. 

Another thing. I offered to teach any interested parties residing in the Seelie castle defense before, to train with a sword -- or to anyone who is already knowledgeable and wishes to have someone to practice with -- that offer still stands as well, now. 

[ With another nod, she switches the feed off. ]

Are the women in this world and your own given as much opportunity to defend themselves as the men?

[ she doesn't wait for any answers, giving a humorless snort of laughter at the locket before continuing. it's not a directly related addition to her question, but it's certainly on the same train of thought: ]

Ridiculous that those already holding power are given the privilege of training to the highest levels of their skills, but those most in need of it are left to rely on the protection of others.
