Ravil Pryde, who she deems to inexperienced to be a blood named warrior, and the two do not get along. − − Johanna is then tasked to serve with a solahma unit as a spy trying to uncover a plot by the scientist caste. This is an excellent exploration of the third line clan units that are often spoken off with disgust, and the living conditions and morale matches expectations completely. − − Johanna succeeds in her clandestine mission and makes it back to the falcon guard in time to take part in the [[Twycross#Refusal_War|fourth battle of twycross]]. − − Here Johanna makes her name in the rememberance with an epic clash against another aged warrior. Natasha Kerensky. It is a somewhat lopsided fight in terms of equipment, Natasha in a Daishi, and Johanna in a Summoner. Johanna relishes the thought of fighting such a prominent foe. They both go down swinging, but Natasha never gets back up. This is the effective conclusion of [[Bred_for_War|Bred for War]]. == Featured characters == == Featured characters == Line 54:
