Rumil?

How good are you with a sword?

And if the answer to that is "very good" you're going to teach me how to use one. >:)

Er, I'm better with archery, but I can handle a sword all right.

[silver_daughter]

Well. I suppose that'll suffice for now.

[little_rumil]

*g*

Do you even have a sword? :P

[silver_daughter]

I found this in Elladan's old room! :D

*produces a sizeable blade with a flourish*

[little_rumil]

Oh, that's a good blade, and quite sharp. Not excatly what you'd use for training... You know that Elrond would kill me if you'd get as much as a scratch. ;)

[silver_daughter]

Oh. Right. Yeah... lethal weapons probably aren't the best thing to learn with straigh away I guess.

[little_rumil]

Hmmm. I think I have an old training sword somewhere.

*rummages around*

There we go. It's not elegant, and a bit on the heavy side, but it'll do for lesson 1. :)

[silver_daughter]

*picks it up and slices the air clumsily*

Bloody hell. This is heavy.

[little_rumil]

Well, a sword IS made of iron, after all. I'll organize a better one for you to practice with. Wanna give this one a try?

[silver_daughter]

Well. If I can handle this, the lighter ones will be easier, right?

[little_rumil]

Something like that. Come on, you can just try. We can stop at any time.

The clearing around the talan has enough space.

[silver_daughter]

Right. You're on. >:)

[little_rumil]

Okay. :)

Let's start with some basics.

*shows you how to grip it with one and two hands and some basic stances*

[silver_daughter]

*pays careful attention to all your movements, getting used to the feel of the weapon in her hands*

[little_rumil]

*watches, occasionally correcting your movements*

*thinks you look damn hot with a sword*

[silver_daughter]

*attempts a couple of lunges your way*
