Target Practice
Eiltin was doing some target practice off to the side at the defenders compound. He was currently practicing with a sling though had been practicing with his spear earlier. He was whipping small stones with the sling at a target fifty yards away from him at or sometime above the speed of most bullets.

Ruarc wasn’t far from him relaxing in the warm sun seeming deceptively unaware.

	"Then I will gladly tell you of them when you want," Eiltin said. Noticing the frown Eiltin decided to make a suggestion. "It might not be my plan to speak of such things to you but perhaps you could use this time to try improving your skills in an art besides being a warrior." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	shield_maiden 2011-04-22 10:01 pm UTC (link)
	Svalin was curious. "Such as?" (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	likethewind 2011-04-22 10:18 pm UTC (link)
	"Well I think that all depends on what interests you," Eiltin says, "Be is magic, smithing, music, tactics, medicine, or any of the countless other arts there are to learn. Surely there is something else besides the physical battle that interests you to learn of." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Such as?," she asked a little curious to what more could be done with Tryggvi. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Sounds a bit like Ruarc and me," Eiltin says, "Though Cú Faoil are different from that. To truly earn one's respect and loyalty is not easy to do. Even I haven't gotten there with Ruarc." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
