[Kratos looks over at him before glancing down at the offered sword. The difference in quality is glaringly obvious. A part of him wishes he'd brought his own sword from the Watch, but he preferred to be on equal footing with everyone else in case of a spar. Less of a chance someone would end up injured with a blade as dull as this one.]

I appreciate the offer, however this will suffice for now. Though not entirely effective, it serves its purpose for training well enough.

[nofarplaneyet]

What purpose are you going for? *Because beating up a dummy with a blunt object doesn't necessarily mean the same as being in battle.*

[flamberge]

[Letting out anger because beating up dummies with a blunt sword is good stress relief.]

Testing the limitations of my own capabilities, I suppose. To be able to do the same with a dull blade as one would with a sharpened one is a considerable challenge.

[nofarplaneyet]

*He can't argue with that.*

If you can do that, you're a better swordsman than I am.

[flamberge]

Then it seems I'm hardly better given I've been unable to do so as of yet.

[The still dangling arm being proof of that.]

[nofarplaneyet]

Well, some things you can't achieve overnight. *Especially being good with a sword.*

[flamberge]

Hmph. No, perhaps not. Certain techniques can only be mastered through constant practice, this one included. [Though mastering it instantly would be nice. Oh well, it shouldn't take too long to grasp.]

[nofarplaneyet]

Are you a soldier in your homeland?

[flamberge]

[Another person asking about his military background. It really must be that obvious.]

I have had prior involvement with the military, yes.

[nofarplaneyet]

*Well, he was one too. Sort of. He recognizes it.*

That background will help you when you go out for missions.

[flamberge]

[He nods slightly in agreement.]

Any sort of combat experience is an asset here.
