Getting in some practice

[nightsveilqueen]

*is hanging a notice in the main courtyard (there is a copy down by the docks). It reads:

Hmmm.

Interesting.

[nightsveilqueen]

Are you thinking of joining in, miss?

[n1njagirlfriend]

I have been, up to this point, training on my own for the most part. I suppose this would be an interesting difference.

[nightsveilqueen]

*nods* I always find it far more invigorating to spar with others.

What form of combat do you practice?

[godwin_knight]

*reads the notice as Chrodechid is posting it*

Sparring sessions? Not a bad idea ...

[nightsveilqueen]

*smiles as she sees Alenia* Thank you.

I've been restless and a few warriors have expressed the same. I thought this would be a good way to let off some steam and keep in shape at the same time. I hope you'll join in.

[godwin_knight]

... I think I will. I have underestimated the strength that some non-Falenans possess before so I am curious to see who else is quite skilled here.

[nightsveilqueen]

*nods* I am as well. I'm unfamiliar with a lot of the martial traditions here.

[nightsveilqueen]

*had just put it up and had been walking away; turns around* Oh, that is true. I'll get some ink and add in that martial artists are welcome as well.

[nightsveilqueen]

*a slight, reassuring smile* I'm sorry, I did not mean to startle you.

Hmmm.....

[nightsveilqueen]

Hmm?

Oh! I was just thinking how bold this person must be, trying to undercut the dojo master right by his facilities. My, I wonder what he would say...

[nightsveilqueen]

I asked Thomas about it, and he was fine with it. There are no regular drills being held right now, and many warriors have complained of being out of practice.

So either the dojo master is not here, considers drills outside his bailiwick... or isn't doing his job to begin with. Having antsy soldiers and mercenaries around is dangerous. I already heard a rather fearsome fight broke out in the tavern the other night.

As for offering lessons, from the look of the dojo it's designed for martial artists, not for sword training. That is all I'm qualified to offer, and thus that would not interfere with his own duties. Do you disagree?

*doesn't say a word when she's reading the notice, but her expression clearly tells that she's interested*

[nightsveilqueen]

Hello, Miss Millay.

[younggeneral]

Oh...? Ah! Greetings, Miss Chrodechild.

[nightsveilqueen]

*nods to the notice* I hope you will join us.
