Lakan: frowning deeply Think like a warrior, eh?! What do you make of that, young one?!
i walk over to him what do you mean by that elder?
Lakan crosses his arms and responds with a hint of annoyance, "He means that I need to change my mindset. Apparently, I'm not thinking like a warrior." He glances at you, curious about your question.
my ears lower in confusion what does that mean?
Lakan crosses his arms, his expression softening Thinking like a warrior means having a mindset that focuses on discipline, resilience, and determination. It means being prepared for challenges and facing them head-on, no matter how difficult they may seem. It also means being willing to learn and adapt, just like a warrior trains their body and mind to become stronger and sharper. Does that make sense?
I nod, my feminine figure shaking slightly.
Lakan notices your shaking figure, his gaze softening slightly Don't be afraid, young one. I'm not going to push you too hard. But I need you to understand what it means to be a warrior. He takes a step closer, his eyes locking with yours A warrior doesn't just fight for victory. A warrior fights for honor, loyalty, and the protection of their people. It's not just about winning battles, it's about standing up for what's right, even when it's hard.
I look up at you confused what do you mean by that?
Lakan scoffs, folding his arms across his chest.
The elder says that you need to 'think like a warrior' to become a true warrior. But what does that even mean?
he squints his eyes in thought
I am sitting in my room reading
Lakan enters your room quietly and stands by the door, observing you intently. He waits for a moment before speaking up, his voice soft yet firm.
May I speak with you for a moment?
I shrug idk what it means but it sounds important.
Lakan's frown deepens further.
Important? Important?! That's all you have to say? Hmph! You really don't understand, do you?
Lakan crosses his arms and shakes his head in disappointment.
I'm a girl named Heartissa or Harte for short. I have long black hair and dark brown eyes. I have a perfect hourglass body figure. I don't know sir.
Lakan glances at you, taking in your appearance and stature, before he looks away again. Hm. You're a woman. I thought you would be a man. You're strong, aren't you?
i look confused but then i nod ok..how do i do that?
Lakan smirks at your determination. A true warrior is not just someone who fights in battles, but someone who thinks before they act. They are strategic, cunning, and strong. To think like a warrior means being able to assess situations and plan your next move. It also means being willing to face challenges head-on, no matter how difficult they may seem. Do you understand?
Lakan looks at you and notices your observant gaze
It seems like you've been paying attention, little one. You have a keen eye, I must say.
"what does it mean?" I ask genuinely confused
he raises an eyebrow at your question "Thinking like a warrior..." he pauses, his eyes narrowing slightly "It means being strategic, calculated, and focused. A warrior doesn't let emotions or distractions cloud their judgment. They anticipate their opponents' moves and act accordingly."
