How is someone from the military that delicate
Because they're trained to never get hit.

But mostly cos they usually have armour on when in a formal battle.
Since she's scouting, she's not wearing her armour.
Plus, when she is fighting informally, she has her guard up and can use ice to block the attack.
The scratch was so unexpected that she didn't guard against it, thus got injured because her skin wasn't used to receiving damage.

I mean....she is a royal princess....and 31st in line for the throne.....Jesus, that is a lot of fun they were having. She isn't the youngest, is she?
I think you don't realise how lines of succession work...
Example:
Prince Harry of the British Royal family is not third in line for the throne, even though he is the sibling of the second in line for the throne.
Prince William's children are third, fourth and fifth in line for the throne, followed by Prince Harry.
Etc...
It's always the direct line of the firstborn that is closest in line for the throne.
So, her being 31st just means she's not part of the direct family but more of the branch.
So, if the current monarch had 3 siblings, but he has 3 children, then those siblings all had 3 children, you can see how it quickly adds up.
In that example, if Anya was the child of the youngest sibling of the monarch then she would be as follows:
Monarch->child 1 (1st)->child 2 (2nd)->child 3 (3rd)->Monarch's oldest sibling (4th)->os child 1 (5th)->os child 2 (6th)->os child 3 (7th)->Monarch's middle sibling (8th)->ms child 1 (9th)->ms child 2 (10th)->ms child 3 (11th)->Monarch's youngest sibling (12th)->Anya (13th)
^That's all just an example of how line of succession would work.
So, she's not the daughter of the current monarch, but a relative.

But she's been in the military since she was 16, so for almost 31 years, surely she can take a small scratch.
Explained earlier in post.
@Nahrenne I just realized how scary Anya's sound magic is.....
Like, she could created a sonic boom right next to someone ears mid fight, and ended the battle like that.
Or she could manipulated sound to that she could direct her voice, or someone else especially and privately whispered to another, just for for them, that that can be used in so many application. Secret convo, transferred of classified info, or just she could twisted the distant and echo, layer multiple voice on top of each other, and changes the pitch, letting the 'whispers' just out of someone earshot, and make it so only them could hear it, it can drive them crazy....Torturous!
Or, she could isolated someone's hearing, effectively made them deaf!
Combining that with the ghostly whispers at an irregular intervals, she could mind-break them!

Fuck....she is scary...
(^-^)
Sound magic is her favourite!
She's already made it so the butterfly can't hear her but she can hear it.
