Ryu simply replies, "What alwalys happens. We live, and when our time is up, we die. But it is what we do in between that counts. The Universal Knowledge is a unique power to each person, and so, once you fully unlock it's true potwntial in your own way, only then will you find your answer." He then leaves, and Thulnam and Coaril both know that he is only here to get supplies
Caoril takes in the scene of the six of them talking with attention to mannerisms and how the others talk. Sensing the giant to be present somewhere other than the current activity he turns to Huzur, “I am in need of a new sparring partner. Perhaps you would like to try your style on a half-elven target sometime soon?”
“This should be fun.” Thulnam settles in to watch the skirmish. He looks to the Half-Orc. “You seem quite guarded. Are you here seeking peace? Or direction?”
Caoril sets down his small pack of writing supplies and walks a short distance away. He goes through a short routine of stretching his limbs and turns to face Nargun, “I am ready when you are. Point fighting rules I assume? I do not wish either of us injury.”

Nargun simply cracked her neck and gave him a friendly smile.
" I'm not sure what that means, my Guru and I would spar to the first broken bone....is it similar?"
“I came here for understanding, but I ended up learning to be at peace.” Thulnam looks over the half-orc. ”My past had controlled my life. It made me timid and afraid. Instead of rejecting and hiding from death, I learned to accept it as another part of the cycle that is life and death.” He pulls out a warhammer made from a dark metal and covered with runic engravings. “Now I wield it like this hammer. A person may take the hammer and hurt themselves. Then they fear the injury and avoid the hammer or they learn from the experience and use the hammer with more skill. I decided to learn after a lifetime of avoidance.”
Thulnam speaks up. “Yes, Master Senn. I believe our new brethren will be welcome additions.”

Nargun nodded in what she thought looked like understanding even if most of her thoughts were taken up with what had just happened with the rock.
Also there was a lot more talking and a lot less hitting with rattan than most of her Gurus lessons had had.
" Honestly I just want to be of use. Can someone point me at a job that needs doing or a problem that needs fixing."
Suddenly, you see Master Senn coming back, only now he is pulling a wagon full of bottles
Caoril takes in the scene of the six of them talking with attention to mannerisms and how the others talk. Sensing the giant to be present somewhere other than the current activity he turns to Huzur, “I am in need of a new sparring partner. Perhaps you would like to try your style on a half-elven target sometime soon?”
Huzur frowns a little at Caoril and grunts.
"I fight when it is necessary," Huzur says. "Otherwise my style is to avoid combat."
He notes the return of Master Senn with a wagon full of bottles.
"Is he really still a master here?" Huzur asks the others. "All of that will overwhelm even a dwarf's constitution."
“Fair enough,” he replies to Huzur. “Perhaps you would be interested?” Caoril offers the giant, Nargun.
" Sure. Why not?"
“This should be fun.” Thulnam settles in to watch the skirmish. He looks to the Half-Orc. “You seem quite guarded. Are you here seeking peace? Or direction?”
Caoril sets down his small pack of writing supplies and walks a short distance away. He goes through a short routine of stretching his limbs and turns to face Nargun, “I am ready when you are. Point fighting rules I assume? I do not wish either of us injury.”
Huzur looks down at Thulnam. He holds the dwarf’s gaze for several moments before nodding.
”Atonement,” Huzur finally says. “I think that is at least possible.”
He turns to watch the other two get ready to spar. But before they begin, Huzur looks back at Thulnam.
”And you? How did you end up here?”
Nargun simply cracked her neck and gave him a friendly smile.
" I'm not sure what that means, my Guru and I would spar to the first broken bone....is it similar?"
“Spectators bone,” he returns the smile, “or yours?”
" Usually mine...on occasion my Gurus. Never any of the villagers."
Suddenly, Master Senn came back, holding a glass bottle. "Ah, I swee you are gwitting acqwuianted."
“I came here for understanding, but I ended up learning to be at peace.” Thulnam looks over the half-orc. ”My past had controlled my life. It made me timid and afraid.

Nargun, Caoril, roll initiative. Also sorry, I've been a bit busy lately and haven't had time to log in for a bit.
