Read the excerpt from "the story of a warrior queen." at last the roman leader was so downcast with his many defeats that he went himself to the british camp, bearing in his hand a green branch as a sign of peace. when boadicea was told that an ambassador from the romans wished to speak to her, she replied proudly, "my sword alone shall speak to the romans." and when the roman leader asked for peace, she answered, "you shall have peace, peace, but no submission. a british heart will choose death rather than lose liberty. there can be peace only if you promise to leave the country." which action best supports the idea that boadicea is a warrior? the roman leader asks for peace with the britons. boadicea evokes pity by choosing death. the roman leader is downcast and does not want to fight. boadicea tells the roman leader that she will speak with her sword.

The action that best supports the idea that Boadicea is a warrior is the last option:  

Boadicea tells the Roman leader that she will speak with her sword.  

This option clearly shows that Boadicea has no intention to talk with the Roman leader, because she believes that to surrender is dishonorable for a warrior and the last thing a British would do. That is the reason why she says:  

‘You shall have peace, peace, but no submission. A British heart will choose death rather than lose liberty’  

She affirms that to her, the only course of action a warrior is to fight, therefore, the fact that the Roman leader approaches with a sign of peace acting as a coward, seems unconceivable for her. Boadicea considers that she is a warrior above all, her only option is to fight and under no circumstances will she speak to an enemy to settle a dispute peacefully.  In conclusion, Boadicea is directly proclaiming that the only option available to her is to fight, until the last consequences and the fact that the Romans are enemies and nothing will change that.
