The steadiness of his arm while holding the sword is impressive. His position isn't simply because of feudal nepotism. "I have some training with knives and other blades but swords are largely obsolete in the warfare I'm experienced in." Admitting she's weak in any area rankles, especially when she's finally getting through to the general but misrepresenting herself does no one any favors, least of all her.

"I've fought extensively with batons in close quarters and I know my capabilities, sir. Find me one of your men who isn't going to behave like an idiot because I'm a woman and I'll learn more than enough to prove myself in the field." Her posture shifts slightly, hips canting to the side to show a slight bit of attitude. She knows how good she is, she can master anything given enough time.
