training ♔ monday morning

[nepotism]

WHO || Fredrick Jr., Luthir, Dovan, entirely open
WHAT || Weapons training
WHERE || Knights HQ, Training Room / Armory / Firing Range / Gym, Dragon's Hide wing, 2nd floor
WHEN || Monday, March 11th from 10am onwards
HOW || Actionspam

It's that time again. New squires would have heard the word come 'round that there would be open weapons orientation this Monday - which is also open to anyone who just wants to come spar with the newbies as well. As before, at the top of the main staircase is the entrance to an incredibly spacious room, that has gym and weight training equipment on the wall near the door, and then lots of old school training dummies and more at the far end. A glass door enters into a firing range, and another pair of large doors on the farthest wall lead to the armory.

Sir Luthir stands off to one side, all impassive elf, armored in his light, beautifully worked metal, and carrying a sword. Red-headed Sir Ironsides hefts an axe over his shoulder and offers a boisterous greeting to those approaching, and Fred helps round people up to the middle of the room.

Some of the squires' mentor Knights will have accompanied them - others will have left them to their own devices. Everyone's welcome to tag into threads or make their own!

An interestin' choice ye've got there. [ he reaches out for it ] May I?

[likeagod]

Of course.

[And he hands it over, letting the dwarf see how it handles.]

[ironsides]

[ he gives it a few expert swings, testing the balance and grip, before handing it back, looking satisfied ] Quite a weapon! Any idea who forged it?

[likeagod]

Unfortunately, no. They're crafted, enchanted, and then given to my kind after they finish their Guardian training, but I don't know much beyond that.

[Once it's returned to him, he re-conceals it in a pocket.]

[ironsides]

Pity that, pity that, I should've liked t'learn how t'make one myself!

[likeagod]

If studying it will help you do that, you're welcome to borrow it from time to time.

[ironsides]

Is that so? [ his whole face lights up. you've made his whole day, d ] Well, if yer gonna offer!

[likeagod]

I'll leave it with you after this training session is complete.

[He doesn't see the need to carry it around as much while living here. He'll take it on missions with him, when he gets assigned one.]

[ironsides]

Thank ye! I'll take good care of it, no doubt about that.
