Leah

Serving as the LEAD in her own Subplot. Being a mother forced to pick up arms as a foot soldier for an insurrectionists malitia - Leah is an emotional anchor to the Antagonists side.

Spoken in a clear, soothing and empathetic voice - with a hint of constant exhaustion.

The context of the setting is a sudden rally of troops across planets to one base on another. Being apart of a bandit malitia - Its essetially like being at work. Leah is simply there to get the job done and get home to family, making her a very guarded and easily irritatable individual - though her walls come down when it comes to her family or her friend Samuel.

The point of Leah is to humanize the enemy. By showing an internal struggle, we understand that everything is grey and not black and white. And through her we understand that everyone in the way of Spectral isn't a monster - which sets up the tragedy that plays out in the story. As well as playing into the theme of "The Lesser Evil" heavily - she brings out a good side in one conversation with the main antagonist of the series. Showing the humanity behind enemy lines.

Leah's connection to the rest of the story goes much deeper - though I can't spoil it here. She is a contributing factor in the other subplot featured in the season. Becoming the catalyst that stitches the world behind enemy lines together.


She runs as the MAIN character of the B plot in the season - and its one of the newer plotlines I've quite excited to continue writing!
