If there was something that I ever wanted the most in my life, then it was definitely what I was close to achieving.
As a young girl, I had always wanted to be one step ahead of people. But all that came to a staggering halt when my family was slaughtered before my very own eyes and I was taken as a slave.
All through those years, I had realized that people like us survived. And we could survive just anything if only we put our minds to it.
We were women who had something to offer. We weren't like men who were only singularly needed. We were versatile. We could convince a leader to hold back his army, we could make him move forward on an attack plan.
All we had to do was to place ourselves in the particular position, and we had to determine the exact moment to be there.
I opened the window and looked outside. I didn't try to hide myself. Though some people looked up to the window wondering who the hell was standing in there when the men were preparing to go for battle.
