Chosen Warrior

Minnow never really needed to think about her future. It looked secure and steady as a rock.
An orphan in a rural village, fostered by a loving family, there was no reason why she should be worried. Even with the inter-species war raging.
Until the Choosing of Paths, a ritual for all teenagers.
People said it was sheer luck, bad or good, that she was Chosen for the Path of the Warrior. It held honour and glory but at a high cost.
After all, the world was the opposite of peaceful, and no amount of training in the Academy would prepare her for the battlefield.
Especially when a truth is revealed, and she is left wondering which side she should be fighting for.
