[Arya's face brightens as she reads Chloe's message, feeling herself grow in that instant much more fond of this other girl. It's rare back home to run into any girl who feels the same as her.] I wanted to be a knight. But girls weren't allowed to carry a sword. To go hunting. To go into battle to defend their homes. But my father, even though he knew I shouldn't and mother certainly didn't approve. He let me start taking lessons with a sword. To learn to fight.
My sister was always more the lady. I could never sew quite as good as her. I hated it.
I met a woman back home though. Brienne. She's a knight. A very good one too. [She respected Brienne quite a bit. Even if she hadn't gone with her when she'd asked after the battle with the Hound.]
