Jinju
She doesn’t remember much from the Reckoning. One moment she was safely with her adoptive mother in the Jungle and the next she was torn away from everything she knew. Magic had been unknown to her at that point, she didn’t have a way to understand what had happened nor what had caused the sudden change. However, soon she learned it had been the fairies. And nowadays the black girl, and soon to be woman, still doesn’t understand why they had taken her mother away.
So yes, Jinju can’t say she doesn’t agree with what the red male says. She doesn’t carry his burden and she hopes she never has too, but she does feel wronged. To her the fairies have never done something good. Only punished her for things she didn’t have a part in. And like that, they had treated Rhonen too. A fire lies underneath his spoken words, passion, a task, or perhaps it is the heavy burden on his shoulders. Even though it isn’t directed at her, Jinju takes a step back. His tension has her tense and soon little – to her harmless – sparks of fire dance around her skin. She’s simply too young and unexperienced to control it properly. ”Far as I know, the lands have been quite peaceful since the Reckoning. This dark force, I do not know of it..” she tries to sooth, though the red eyed girl isn’t sure who she’s soothing.
Hesitance and fear lie in her eyes. Not of him, but the darkness he speaks of. She can see how it consumes him, which makes it pretty clear that it is not something to take light. Jinju had only known Beqanna to be peaceful and safe, the existence of such forces was entirely new to her, and quite scary she would have to admit. ”I don’t know…” she mumbles softly, then pausing for a moment. ”But I’ve only seen them punishing others. Me, my mom, Litha, everybody. Was it so wrong of me to find a new mother..?” her voice suddenly thickening with emotion, a slight tremble as well, as she glances away. No, the Reckoning hadn’t done her any good. However, she has grown and learned.
And that shows in the smile as he asks her about her home. ”The Taiga. It isn’t quite like the Jungle, but it is home. It is where my family lives.” To her that was what a home was, the place where her family was. First it had been Lexa and the Jungle, now Reagan, Ruan and all her siblings in the Taiga.
