(ooc: sorry about the poor grammar in my previous post i didn't proof read it, I will try and do so more often)<br/><br/>At Akara's comments Angela sighed gratefully, as if a huge burden was released from her, several in fact were and in thanks began to follow Akara's instructions to the letter.<br/><br/>Although Angela had no experience with a blade, she was an impressive dancer and it wasn't long until Akara started making use of her excellent sense of balance and coordination.  Still the girl wasnt' used to pain nor physical exhaustion and although she was a quick learner, she was far from fit, and breaks for her to catch her breath were frequent enough to boarder on frustrating her teacher.<br/><br/>The third of such breaks had Angela leaning over a water bowl, staring at her own reflection.<br/><br/>"Good God Akara, how do you keep this up ? I mean I am trying with everything I have and you match it and so much more so effortlessly, Im rolling in sweat, fell over my feet more times than I have toes and not even one drop is anywhere to be seen on you, you barely move ! this is just like a stretch to you ... barely that ! stories of you fighting for HOURS exist, how is that even possible ?  ..... "<br/><br/>"Itss.... because ssssshe is a hero youngling ... best spare breath to learn from her teachings not understand how or why ... hmm" Sherara was on a top balcony observing the past few minutes and wore only the enchanted jewelry about her shoulders and scabbard-ed swords on her hips. The snake-elder seemed without modesty or care for being otherwise bare breasted and had been silently approving how well Akara was training.<br/><br/>"With training skills as good as she hasssss I would gladly pay her a hero's wage for her to train my own ssssstatuessss in combat .. or any other hero in your company that hassss anything like such talent, once they learn they keep their knowledge, it would make my ssstatues not just ssservantssss but an army if the need arose... hmm sssssomething we can discuss over dinner ssssomehow, which reminds me I do need a General ... or someone that understands tacticsss better than I actually, hmm  refining my own swordplay can only be done by one better at bladessss than I, training I also ssseek and would pay handsomely for"<br/><br/>she tilted her head to the side<br/><br/>"Many thoughts I care to discussss feel relavent now, but now is not the time, I am sorry for disturbing you both, sssuch thoughtsssshould be in the way of training one who needssss to learn how to focusss ... I have ssspoken out of turn, please both of you, do forgive me. The training yard hasn't been used in so long I almost forgot its ettiquette .. However I am very pleased, its so good to have more living souls here again, it makes it feel alive, warm ... fresshhhhhh... like a sea breese-ssss "<br/><br/>Her tounge serpent-like licked the air again instinctively before the elder dipped elegantly in a bow of respect to the trainer only to then slither away from the courtyard balcony at an effortless pace that which unnerving to watch ...<br/><br/><div align="center">**<br/></div><br/>At the Cave that Ravus has lingered.<br/><br/>"Decimated life ?" A very feminine voice inquired<br/><br/><div align="center">(http://api.ning.com/files/3gp3rKrhEA6SlpECSxHqGOXUQvntb0YooBDAjMpvmxDETsrXc*oo-m38bztuxnRjUMK3TTWOajAlJerxZD7pisTvy*ys8l-y/digital_CG_art_Fairy.jpg?width=737&amp;height=460)</div><br/>Turning about Ravus saw literally a fairy on a swing that swayed silently to her motions.<br/><br/>"Decimated means one part in ten lost, if it is one part in ten your nine parts whole, which is more than what most souls feel, mortal or otherwise"<br/><br/>She smiled at the man that was on his knees<br/><br/>"You are an interesting person, I don't meet many here, most are too busy well .. being busy and doing things, plans .. they have a want to change something all the time, if you don't have such needs on what changes should happen or what shouldnt change being distressed doesn't .... happen."<br/><br/>"I am not sure what creature your looking for but a fairy I am, G'olhuea, or Huea for short, but one that isnt interested in ending a decimated life. Or a full one, hmm or any partial part life come to mention it. Not that I really would think bad of myself for doing so, it just doesn't seem to be a hunger to ... well change anything, and ending something is changing something."<br/><br/>She shrugged her shoulders as if the thought was hard to understand let along relate to.<br/><br/>"Would you like to try the swing? Or was there another creature you hoped to meet that could well change a decimated life into different type of fraction ? For perhaps a different fraction, one that is more odd than even would be a fraction that feels more balanced for you, one you wouldn't be as needy to change into something ... less yes ?"<br/>
