Nene "it's only a flesh wound"
Random passerby "Ahhhhh! have you looked at it?! How are you alive?!"
*rolls laughing* No, really, Nene is not the type to get wounded all the time~

She got wounded mostly because she was alone while doing something dangerous. It won't be that bad in Gelderholm.
Wait who's #1?
Solet of course~
@.@) Though I'm not sure how Leti would do the rank up quest
With guts!

I guess I could have leti prepare a lot, learning what the bird likes to eat and studying its habits or something.
:blob_aww:
Ah that could work

I never used a DVR, but I used to record the cartoons that aired while I was in school in a VHS tape~

But yeah, Solet didn't get much screen time, Luna stole his spotlight~

Grimdark gave less of an emotional impact than uncertainty mood. Also, it can quickly become grimderp if not done correctly.
Have to disagree on principal.

UNAPPRAISED

BigGreen's Report
~Day 2 - 4~
The spear Stab. This move is what Vascille has been hammering into my wooden head for the past 3 days. All I have been doing has been practicing stabbing this straw dummy and Vascille would make comments on my positioning or how I'm not doing it well enough in general. He say's that just like how my stance is important foundation, so is the basic of the stab. He also mentions off-hand that if I continue to come and train with the guard I will eventually be taught more things, just to remember to bring in the 15g as usual. Looks like I'm going to have to sell more potions to the guild again.

--------

~Day 5 - 6~
Well I guess what I learned was different from stabbing, today Vascille taught me how to Thrust. Vascille explains to me the difference between stabbing and thrusting. That was when thrusting I would be using my whole body into my forward momentum and then unleash a strong and precise blow towards my target. Rather then a standing Stab which incorporated a defensive stance , that used the range of my spear. A spears thrust counted as it's offense stance, which I would take the role of attacker. Vascille helped me 2 days on thrusting and gave me little tips when to attack or when to defend.

--------

~Day 7-9~
On Day 7 and 8, Vascille taught me how to Swipe with spear. I would make an attack horizontally across my enemy. Vascille teaches me this move can be used in a retreating attack or to act as an opener for my opponent. It was a versatile move that helped the user be offensive or defensive. I grasped the basic of Swipe with the help of Vascille easily over the 2 days. Now that I learned the 3 basic moves from Vascille, now I had to learn how to incorporate all of them together. On Day 9 Vascille showed me the ways to flow freely through each move and when to connect them or not.

--------

~Day 10~
The first thing that Vascille did for our lesson today was give me a wood pole and enter the circle. The circle was where the guards practiced with one in another in combat and it seems like it was my turn now. Vascille explained to me that, only in real combat, will I truly learn how to fight. Vascille asked a nearby trainee guard to spar with me and he agreed.
My sparring partner went to go grab his weapon, a wooden sword, and walked to the ring. My opponent was the first one to act. He went on the offensive and came rushing towards me with an overhead slash. I disengaged with a sweeping strike against him and retreated back into my comfortable range. I counter with a few spear stabs and he tries to deflect them with his sword. He finally fails to deflect one of by attacks and that marks my offensive rush-down. I quickly take the opportunity to attack with multiple thrusts and force him off-balanced. With a final thrust, I push him out of ring.
My first ever real victory using a spear, it felt good. Viscille thanked the trainee for sparring with me and congratulated me on first win. He also grabbed a wooden pole like mine and stepped in the ring. It looks like he wasn't going to go easy on me...
------
As I tend to me chipped body parts of mine, Vascille comment's that I did well for my first time against him. I couldn't even get one hit in, against Vascille. As the day comes to an end I thank eveything that Vascille has taught me over these days. He tells me he had fun training me and told me I could finally call myself a spearmen. Vascille then hands me a a brand new guard-issued spear and tells me it's from him. A gift for completing my spearmen training. I thank him again and tell him about my Camp. That if he ever needs my help he can come look for me there. I say my goodbyes to Vascille and head back to Camp Lily.

*Wonders how much he can get away with regarding the concept of magic-nullification*
I actually have one of my NPC have the ability to nullify magic. Although not directly cancel the spell, the Envoy can isolate the area from Mana, making ordinary magic casting impossible.

What if it's a ritual which doesn't require mana due to it essentially using a bug in the natural laws to cause the desired effect with minimal effort due to the application of the butterfly effect? :blob_hide:

Whatever the author say, milord.
I generally find the concept of "throw mana at it until it works" as magic pretty... well, stupid and childish to be honest. Which is why I usually think of proper systems or alternative ways to do it.

My perspective was that Mana is simply fuel, and how it behaves would be up to the magic-user. Manipulate them like this result in A, like that result in B etc.

Imagine it as an elementary particle, and magic-user as a god. Combined one way created one result, combined the other created another result.
