Preparedness

A shy modern girl finds herself in the wrong place, and called to the wrong time. A time rife with dangerous predators and equally dangerous saviours, neither of which her comfortable life up to now has readied her for. She may not be enough now, but can she be?

"People are like trees, they start off as delicate sprouts then grow into these great sturdy things, rooted in their experiences and with networks of branches that connect them to other people. I'm like that, or I should be but I feel like a fragile flower more than anything else. When will I be able to be a tree?"
