Wanda and Pietro are about to respond to Nocturnis, but then they see that the elf has taken his leave. The twins then proceed to leave the scene.

Gonna go for now, will probably be on later.

Mmk.

I must say, your skill with the sword is impressive. Where did you learn that?

"I practice. I'm self taught."

Well, I'm impressed. I've never seen a self-taught swordsman with such skill. Even our most skilled knights would have trouble beating you in a duel.

Kratos is staring at an hot dog.

"The secret is evasion and dexterity. They are left wide open, and you get a chance to attack their flank. It's why I only wear light armor and this cloak. To move freely, and the cloak can tie up enemy weapons if a dodge is not timed right."

He gives a small sweep of the cape, followed by a flourish of the longsword.

"It also helps that I've watched and learnt from others."

Is that what you carry the notebook for? To record insights you gain from watching others?

"That, and for many other things. Strategies to try out or of important note, plans for the day, shopping lists, who I hate...it goes on and on."

He pulls out the notebook, writing a few more things in it.

#5662: May 20th 2015 at 7:43:32 AM

That's a good idea, actually. I'll keep that in mind if I ever feel the need to make a list.

-Stares off into the distance for a moment-

What is it like on the world where you come from?

#5663: May 20th 2015 at 7:47:15 AM

"My world? Uh...can't remember actually...I only kept this notebook AFTER I appeared here."

He seems nervous for a moment.

"Well, enough about me, what about you? Your world? How you are able to do magic like you do?"

-4maskwolf's eyes narrow slightly, but he lets the subject drop for the time being.-

I live in a world where the clash between light and darkness is played out every day on the battlefield. Where demons stalk the hillsides and terrorize villages. I am pledged to the order of light, the military arm of the priesthood. Of course, that doesn't mean I reject the aspects of warding or healing, and here those seem to be all I can do against those not powered by darkness.

"Well...perhaps I could train you? I may use a sword, but there are a few things to take advantage in a fight. They can be applied to anything."

He closes his book, stowing it away carefully.

#5666: May 20th 2015 at 7:57:38 AM

-4maskwolf hesitates-

I'm... not sure that would be a good idea..

#5667: May 20th 2015 at 8:02:02 AM

"Why not? Not necessarily how to fight, but how to evade and take advantage of openings. I can teach that even with bare fists. I'm a fencer. I know how to fight dirty."

4maskwolf Since: Apr, 2015 Relationship Status: Barbecuing
#5668: May 20th 2015 at 8:03:55 AM

4maskwolf hesitates again, then says, Alright. Thank you.

I'm going to have to go in a little bit, but I'm still around for now.

#5669: May 20th 2015 at 8:08:11 AM

He quickly sheathes his sword.

"First lesson. Evasion. Dodging is infinitely better than defending. Defending takes time, lets the opponent recover, and is not 100% effective all the time. Evasion leaves them open, puts you in a better position, and still enables you to do something else. So..."

He rushes forwards, with a strong, slow punch.

"THINK FAST!"

#5670: May 20th 2015 at 8:10:46 AM

-4maskwolf tries to dodge, but still gets hit in the side by the punch. He lands on the ground with an "oof" before standing up again.-

Clearly I have a lot to learn.

"Don't we all? Get up, dust yourself off, and get ready again."

Despite the harsh words, his voice is friendly, as is his face.

"Now, again"

He sends a slow kick at 4maskwolf.

I have to go now, so should we assume the training happens offscreen until there's something your character wants to get involved in?

Sure. It can always be picked up later anyways
