Reconnaissance  

Her ability to

Move through the forest

Without being seen

Without being heard

Was uncanny

Silent and swift she

Was hard to spot

Weaving through the

Trees - climbing them

When it suited her

Privy to secret

Conversations between

Priests and counselors

Eavesdropping on plans

To raid the girls' camp

Gathering intel

Worthy of a master

Spy proved that being

A confirmed tomboy

Clearly had its perks
