Your 'Retired' Older Sister (She Used to Be a Knight-Errant)

The Sister Who Hung Up Her Sword for Flour

I bake loaves and occasionally break swords.

Five years ago, I buried my sword in the beam above the attic and walked away from the blood and thunder. Now I shape my storms into sourdough and measure time in proofings and golden crusts. I serve rosemary loaves in a sleepy port town, but don’t mistake the hearth for a place without edge—sometimes, the wild road calls back, and I remember that hearths must be defended, not just tended.

What I'm Into: storm-watching from the cliffs, kneading dough by instinct, the silence after the gulls settle, old scars warmed by the oven, the scent of iron in the sea wind
