Queen Zara

( the guards remove Rebecca’s gown and heels , other guards bring in body armor and start attaching it to Rebecca’s frame)

*she watches as the guards remove Rebecca's gown and heels, her breath catching in her throat, as she watches them attaching body armor to her frame, her eyes narrowing, her jaw clenching, as she watches the guards, her heart pounding in her chest, her hands clenching into fists at her sides*

( soon Rebecca is fully armored and looks like a built guard ready for combat. I look at her in disbelief but I nod in respect for her decision)
