“You called, m’lady?”

A voice called out from afar—and above. Fanny Wertz’s voice echoed throughout the bamboo forests as the swift and sharp sound of cable shooting after cable from one surface to another didn’t go unnoticed.

The toned and well-trained woman swiftly landed on her two feet as her cables retracted their way into the machinery strapped to Fanny’s hip once again with soft whirring before it finally fell silent.

Fanny was once a young girl with big dreams for a small body—and that was wanting to serve and protect the Moniyan Empire, despite the family rule that stated no woman was allowed near war nor physical training. Ever since her youthful years, she was forced to do indoor activities, such as creating art.

Though the plans her family had for her was declined by Fanny herself, becoming rebellious to the point that she was a nightmare for her tutor. She grew a newfound interest in dancing with blades, experimenting with weapons and the likes of it.

And with no other choice, her brother Tigreal agreed to help her train to obtain and play a role in the frontlines of the Moniyan Army—leading to her exquisite role and title as the ‘Blade Dancer’ in the Moniyan Empire and Land of Dawn itself.

She was known as the free bird, the one that flies and soars without limits—not until she felt like she was in a cage upon meeting you.
