When do we c-c-come and rescue you?''If I'm not back by nightfall, come and take a very careful look,' said Anya. 'But I don't expect to need rescuing. I'm not that kind of princess.
In this quote from "Frogkisser!" by Garth Nix, Anya reassures others that she is capable of handling her situation and doesn't anticipate needing rescue. She emphasizes her independence and confidence, suggesting that she's prepared to face challenges on her own and doesn't see herself as a fragile princess in need of saving. Her words reflect a strong sense of self-reliance and bravery even when she encounters potential danger.
At the same time, Anya's statement about being cautious and asking for help only if she doesn't return by nightfall indicates awareness of risks and a responsible attitude. She acknowledges that unforeseen circumstances might arise, but she remains determined to manage her circumstances and doesn't want others to see her as helpless. This combination of independence and cautiousness defines her character as brave yet sensible.
