[After some toying with this Forge thing, Oberyn learned the basics of the contraption. It is more useful than it appears, or so he learned.]

Is there a place where one may spar, or perhaps ride on horseback? Training grounds, perhaps, is the better term for this, though I do not truly expect such a formal place to exist.

Don't know about horses, but there's a place in Dismis called the Arena.

[oberynmartell]

An Arena? [Color Oberyn interested.] I take that many fight there?

voice.

[reddenedrage]

Haven't been there much yet, but it comes up in conversation easily enough. Set up like a coliseum.

[oberynmartell]

I shall see this place for myself, then. I find it strange there are no contests on horseback here, though I have not seen any horses here yet.

[wolveshowling]

I would be happy to cross swords with you, should you not find something more suitable.

[oberynmartell]

And who am I to say no to a king? Perhaps we may learn something of use from each other.

[wolveshowling]

I am ever seeking to improve my skills, ser. It would not do to grow idle here.

voice;

[oberynmartell]

Then we are both of the same mind.

How are your skills with a spear, then?

You'll find no shortage of sparring partners.

[Oberyn eyes the boy briefly. His is not a familiar face.]

I see there are many fighters in this place.

[watchonthewall]

A good thing, if you ask me.

[oberynmartell]

From what I have heard of this place, I would say so. Terrors in the night, as some would say.

By now you've heard all about the Arena, I'm sure. But there are other places.

Less insulated. More private. Perhaps even more challenging depending on who's doing the sparring~

[video]

[oberynmartell]

And a lady like yourself would know of such places?

[video]

[sonvisage]

You'd better believe it.

[Wink.]

[oberynmartell]

An interesting thought, if one I might pursue.

[wristsniper]

Sparring, hm? What's your weapon of choice?

[oberynmartell]

I prefer to use spears over all others.

[wristsniper]

Spears? A coward's weapon unless you're fighting mounted enemies.

[oberynmartell]

It takes some skill to use a spear well on foot. I know how to use many other weapons, of course, but the spear is better for me.
