Samantha Fischer, Kouropalates to the Third Prince
It had taken several months for Fischer to adjust to her new title and role within the household. She had her own valet, for one. Giving her armor off at the end of the day and having it cleaned, polished, and repaired at the end of her bed in the morning was an experience that required acclimation.
Then there were the more energetic, valuable power crystals of the Imperial Retinue. The first time she had overclocked them (a regular practice in the Emerald Legion), she had nearly blown herself (and her apartments) to orbit from the power cascade.
Her new duties were not an issue; she had been a bodyguard before, been in command of a squadron before. That this was largely ceremonial was immaterial.
Still, it wasn't until the assault on the Prince's complex in her third year as Kouropalates that Fischer finally felt at home. The title was honorary, the position a kind alternative to early retirement. But as she advanced on the assassins through the firebombed remains of the public hall, she and they both quickly discovered that despite the filigree and the trim, she was still every bit the hardened battle veteran and legionary.
Needless to say, the assassins did not live long enough to make use of that revelation.
Ludicrously proud of this one.
