I am almost sorry to see them take their leave. They were quite the challenge, but also quite the mess. Twenty-three is still a good number.

Eden, I will be by shortly.

Zach, I am glad you enjoyed the drinks. My glass?

No. Those don't even sound like Old Tongue.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Unfortunately I am also unfamiliar with "Old Tongue."

I am Caspian.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

It's a flaming ancient language in my world.

Nice to meet you, Caspian. I'm Mat.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

A pleasure, Mat.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

How'd you take care of the bloody things?

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

By sword and dagger, mostly.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

Sword and dagger? Good for you.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

What would you have used?

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

I used throwing knives and my quarterstaff mostly.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Are you a marksman?

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

My knives and arrows usually don't miss if that's what you're asking.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Yes. That's impressive.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

Just practicing what my da taught me. My bow, my knives, and my quarterstaff will always be my favorites.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

He must have taught you well. I learned swordsmanship from soldiers.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

He always won the competitions during festivals at Two Rivers.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Your world doesn't sound too different from Narnia after all.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

It doesn't? That's actually nice to hear.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Well we have festivals and competitions, especially for swordsmanship, archery, and knife throwing.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

Have you ever competed in any of them before?

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Occasionally.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

I was always too lazy to.

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

It was a little improper for me to partake in all of them.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

Improper?

[treadingdawn.livejournal.com]

Well, I was a prince at the time, and princes are not to participate in the common competition, but when a prince does participate it is almost certain that he will be made to win.

[bloodygoodluck.livejournal.com]

Was a prince?
