Asami doesn’t get as much cred as a martial artist as she deserves. So her showing off her skills to her beloved Korra in a comic made me quite giddy :)
Aidah Tabris shifted her weight uncomfortably as she stood staring at the closed doors to the main hall, waiting for Seneschal Varel to announce her. The layers of cloth, leather, and chainmail were hot. Constricting. The plate armor felt impossibly heavy. It was all closing in on her, threatening to crush her.
The Grey Wardens of Ferelden. Vigil’s Keep. The entire arling of Amaranthine. All under her protection, all her responsibility.
As the doors were opened, Aidah affixed the winged helmet under her arm and lifted her chin. Countless pairs of eyes turned to rest on her, each one like a burning coal on her skin. She walked forward—gaze steady, expression composed, heart beating loudly in her ears.
“All rise. The Warden-Commander and liege lord of all Amaranthine enters.”
