Reflection
Ariven hadn't quite been sulking these past few weeks but she certainly wasn't happy. She'd lost her first training match, to a more skilled fighter yes but it still wasn't a pleasant experience and she didn't really have much of a positive nature to battle it with. The young kaillad girl was certainly finding that finding her footing and path in the world was a lot harder than she'd imagined it would be. Oh she'd dreamed of epic fights and treasure and such things but really the work it would take to get to them, if such things were even possible, those hadn't really been thought out as much as they should have been.
All that nonsense about practicing till she fell over had been forgotten during the last few weeks while she wandered about, listening to tales of other trainees and hanging out with locals. Ariven had wasted precious time and she knew it, there was no way to get the time and advantages it would have given her back, she'd just have to get on the road to hard work and victory starting today.
Mind made up she hopped off her bed and headed out of the room, no time like now for a nice brisk jog to get her used to moving more again, perhaps she'd even swing by the training grounds.
