[Warringkingdoms]

  [font=trebuchet ms]If Rin hadn't already been paranoid about the recent fluctuations of fate, she would have counted herself incredibly lucky to encounter eight joiners in the span of two days. She'd lived in clans where they had five or even fewer actual members, so a leader with less to worry about would have seen this as an overwhelming blessing. Of course, she wasn't that naive. There had to be some sort of catch to the influx of new faces. Maybe it was the wakizashi that this individual carried- sword-wielders were rare in this region- or maybe it was the cool manner in which this barely-apprentice-aged creature spoke, but Rin had to wonder if there was something deeper behind her facade.

  Dismissing this pondering as paranoia, Rin approached Winterwish with a stoic expression on her scarred features. She was to-the-point, having immediately offered her name and reason for being there. They were similar in that regard, seemingly. "I am Warringkingdoms Kepler-Langley, but you may call me Rin," she responded, twitching the tip of her tail. "If you want to become an official member, I'll need to swear you in at the next meeting- but if not, you can stay as long as you like."
