Welcome to Gaia! ::

"It has been several years," Miyuki nodded in agreement, "We didn't sail directly here, we stopped at Amon Darthir before heading to Caras Galadhon, and then we stayed there a year. So... I think between the traveling and the stays, it's been a bit over three years already."

When they got to the clearing, Miyuki could easily make out her brother, but he wasn't moving from his crouched position.

"Andarien?" Miyuki called out once they were within eye sight.

"And of course he didn't tell you what he did or why," Miyuki added with a sigh.

She should have figured as she hurried over to Andarien to take a good look at his arm. Unfortunately, she didn't know a thing about injuries, which meant either they went to find Cael (or Lancerial) or they went to the clinic.

"If I helped you up," she bent down beside him, "Can you stand?"

It was hard to tell, even though it was just his arm, he was clutching it.

"Andarien," Miyuki softly rebuked her brother.

Kaito must had really put him into a mood, more than just hurting Andarien's arm. Though even Miyuki would admit it was hard to tell what would set him off.

"She was asking for permission to touch you, she wasn't suggesting anything about your ability to stop her. Silverbirch is only trying to help."

"What did Kaito do?" Miyuki asked Shoneah.

She figured whatever Shoneah did, it was the opposite of what Kaito did. Miyuki didn't doubt that the neko knew exactly what he was doing.

Miyuki thought about it, and thought about what could have been conversation leading up to the incident. She actually had heard of pressure points in passing, but this was the first time she had ever seen the effects of one.

"Do I want to know what Kaito was doing before he did that?" she asked him finally.

Miyuki sighed and pinched the bridge of her nose. Of course, she should have figured that, that was part of a lesson plan. Though she had no idea why Kaito thought it was a brilliant idea to show Andarien and then walk away without a full explanation or even without helping Andarien.

"Of course... so I guess that means your new lessons will be about pressure points," Miyuki murmured, "Kaito sure likes to make things difficult."

"I would say take it," Miyuki replied, "Kaito does mean well, I think I understand why he wants to introduce it. If you get attacked before you can draw your sword, or worse yet, you don't have your sword, you won't be completely defenseless."

She emphasized about not having his sword, because they were both weaponless when they were dragged out of that cellar back when the General caught them. It was why Miyuki did want to learn some offensive magic, in case she was ever caught without her stuff again.

"But," she added, "Kaito has to learn not to pull tricks on people and leave them."

Though for all she knew, maybe Kaito knew this might force Andarien to learn, who knew?

Miyuki chewed her lower lip, she wanted to giggle, mainly because it was true that Kaito could be a bit of a jerk at times. Not that he meant to, it was just his sense of humour was a bit off at times.

"Well... why don't we head back to camp since this particular lesson is over," Miyuki suggested, "You could even show Sliverbirch your smith tools, apparently she does some as well, mainly for her bullets."
