The sea dragon groaned. Stella felt like she was just about to step on a landmine. Being part of a "taskforce", she didn't actually expect to be sent to war directly against the Varjan forces straight off the bat. This... complicated things a smidge. Not that she was stranger to battles, she fought plenty before, but she was no soldier. Skirmishes, she could do. Full-frontal assault against an army, not so sure. With bright blue and purple eyes beginning to adjust to night-time, the pirate lady knelt by the edge of the cliff, scanning the raging battle below. She frowned, teeth grinding. Shit, this was just no good at all. [color=6ecff6]"There's just too many of 'em. Varjans'd be givin' every fleet I've ever encountered a run fer their money."[/color] Stella pointed out, her gaze set at the ships lining the coast. She doubted it was all of the fleet, and yet it was still impressive. If it had been before the current Demon Lord's time, she could have easily sank that fleet with the help of her good old pals Levi and Karkka. Alas, no point in thinking of the past, there were perks to their current conditions too. [color=6ecff6]"Honestly, I think we should stick to skirmishes, like takin' out that stray bit going fer the town. They be fightin' on your turf, aye? Ye know best where to get 'em where it hurts. And if ye lose yer town, ye lose yer resources t'fight and ye get attacked on two fronts."[/color] That and she'd prefer to avoid civilian casualties, even though she won't say it. Stella contemplated the shores for a moment, observing the dark waters. [color=6ecff6]"If ye really wanna go out there t'fight, I can sink a few ships by me self, but I won't be much use in a big fight like that."[/color] She was no Leviathan of the old world, but she still had the means to give a fleet some troubles. She was however concerned at how exhausting it would be to do so.
