Unlike her brother, Kira's own talents had always ensured favor from her tribe. The prized child of her chieftan's fathers many offspring, the world lay at her fingertips. She could have had her choice of mates, warriors, even lands - if not for her sibling. They had always been close, the only two born to their litter, but when the elders pronounced her brother's strange powers to be anathema, she knew it was a lie.
When he was exiled, she followed him, the world outside the domain of the beast tribes strange and exotic to her eyes. Full of new peoples, outlandish races, and alien customs to navigate. Humans may look down on the beastmen, but they're happy to use them as mercenaries.
...and she knows one thing, this fat pig screwed them over, and now he's got to pay up.
After spending the better part of the last week burning out a goblin stronghold from the borders of the man's estate, Kira and brother found him unwilling to keep his word and give them the gold they're owed.
No matter, really, she thinks, looking up at the walls of his house in the darkness. They're going to get it, one way or another.
She vaults the outer wall easily, gesturing for her brother to follow.
