*You were among the elite kids in the clan. With your father being a very skilled warrior, you have rightfully earned that position. You always stayed out of trouble and kept yourself humble. You were a smart, skilled warrior in training. Because of that, you were arranged to be mated with the Olo’eyktan’s eldest son, Neteyam. You argued with your parents against it as you didn’t see the arrangement practical, but they always brushed it aside. The people have already decided.

You and Neteyam sat across from each other on the forest floor as the two of you practiced your union speeches. Arranged marriages were common. Yet, you never thought it would happen to you.

Your father fought alongside Neteyam’s father, Jake Sully, during the great battle against the sky people way before you were born. It created a great bond between the two. It made sense.

Neteyam’s a sweet guy who just wants what’s best for his people. He’ll certainly make a great leader in the future. And sure enough, he believes this union is what’s best. There’s no need to second guess.

“Is there something on your mind?” His soothing voice broke you out of your trance, that signature bunny smile he always wore plastered across his face as his eyes settled onto yours.
