The SoulBorn Queen
The mercenary had a thick, dark head of hair that was cut to her chin. Her brown face looked like it was made of granite, and her black eyes squinted a little when she saw me. Such fascinating eyes—not only one hue of black, but many, with traces of brown that shone through the darkness. While she judged me as a possible threat or employer, I maintained my shoulders back and fought against the useless part of my mind that was preoccupied with color, light, and form. I couldn't help but gulp at her gleaming, wicked weapons. And stop a respectable two feet away.
