Through Fire and Snow I: Meet the Huntress

Dust flew in the air in the Great Arena as the Rajang roared. The thundering ape swung his fist at the young huntress fighting him, which was blocked with a loud CLANG. One of his horns had been snapped in the heat of battle, and several scars had been painted onto his hide with the Tactical Blade that this girl was using. He growled and leaped forward, but his attack was barely evaded, and he hit the wall. Coughing up some blood, the Rajang turned around, and met his end when the Great Sword was brought down upon his head.

The quest was complete. The huntress removed her Nargacuga helmet. Her skin looked as if she had never been in the sun in her life; it had been tanned enough that she didn't look like she was made of porcelain. Her red hair was in a more boyish hairstyle which did not even meet her shoulders. The huntress's eyes were blue; close to the shade of a Velociprey scale. Her name was Icil, a 19 year old girl raised in Pokke after a Goravior had killed her mother and left her father with a fatal injury, which he died from a year later.
