Welcome to Gaia! ::

He would look to the man from beneath the deep hood of that brown, tattered cloak. "As you wish." Is all he could really reply as he would lift his weapon aside, and across the opponent's chest that weapon would be swung. It was not very fast at all, and the power behind it seemed lacking, as though he was unwilling inside to hit someone else. Although, his turning movement, along with his feet movement seem to both come from muscle memory.

Paradox noted the potential in the swing, as well as the energy wasted in the slow arc of motion. His body did not move, for it had no reason too. The blade hit his armor, which dented inward, and then whatever the armor was protecting which stopped the blade cold. The giant shook his head at the swing. "It was a horrible swing. You need power and speed in your attack. It will make up for what you lack in skill for now, but that doesn't mean that you won't learn. Every movement is an experience to learn from." Paradox told the man simply. He did notice the swivel in the foot, or a memory of a swivel. This man had done this kind of work before.

The teslan lord laughed. "When have I ever stayed in the castle, Queen Katherine. I will wait in the main hall and enjoy the veiw." Lord Dracien lied. His red finery spilled out over his chair, draping itself all around him, well it had always been like that, but still. this new outfit was annoying.

He would take a single step back, the sole of that large boot loud upon the ground as he seems shocked upon hitting somebody with a weapon, although it did not damage, that would not matter. Bandages hands seem to shake momentarily before they grasp each other and he speaks. "Ahh.. I see.." He takes a deep breath before standing at full and pulling his hood off. This figure's chiseled features were wrapped in darkened flesh, while horizontal scars 'decorated' his chin, cheeks, and the bridge of his nose. It looked very tribal, in fact, he looks like he is from quite a distance away. His hair is raven black, short bangs, and then the rest is all military-like. Those eyes, although kind, probably too kind, were the same exact azure as Jack's. In fact, he could somehow be related, as they are both the same height. Although this man probably weighs about three times as much in muscle. Seeming to scratch his head with a large, bandaged hand for a moment, he would continue. "I thank you.. I will remember that.. or try to.. I think I'll be able to remember things from now on."

((Sorry I vanished for a bit like that. My girlfriend and I were breaking up. Just give me a sec to catch up and I'll start the posting.))

((wow I am sorry. I will post Dialh for you))
Dialh gave a bit of laughter and kissed him again. "Allen your to wonderful for me i fear." She spoke looked around them in the field. "Do you think we should head back?"

((Nah, don't be sorry. It was a mutaul thing in the end she's going to join the coast gaurd and all. I'm a chill musician studying to be a music teacher. Down the road will be way different life styles. Besides we'd agreed to be friends. It's all good here.))

"Hmmmmmm..... I believe we should. I left my armor lying around last night and haven't gone to fetch it since. But I'm sure someone returned it. The armor is custom fitted so it's usless to others." Allen said looking back at the castle.
"This moment of peace. I would love for it to last. Well now shall we surprise our friends?" Allen said laughing a bit. He couldn't wait to tell Zypher about this.

((I'll get Zypher and Tempest going once I read more to catch up.))

Dialh of course was on his arm as she spoke. "I think it best you talk to her Majesty, I am still after all under her protection." Dialh said with a smile. It was true after all and what was more Dialh was younger than Allen most likely thought.

Katherine noded some, "Thank you." Though he was up to something the trouble was getting him to open up about it which he wasn't going to. She looked over to Matachi then thinking of something. "There is a small Duel and festival by the docks in a couple of days they have a archery contest, one of the contests are for younger boys i thought you might ask Mirza if he wished to apply."
