*uses the carving tools to craft a rough nondescript figure*

*Sits on a fallen log to watch*

*mutters* All done!
*The figure of a wooden horse is animated but rears in protest*
Sorry, bit too vigorous a dose...
*the horse canters in circles*

Wow, that's impressive, anything else you care to show me

No
*shyly*
Can you teach me how to forge a sword?

I have a fair amount a knowledge of Alchemy

*Finds her dagger and hands it to Elwyn*

This dagger will kill most things, the core of the blade is wood which will kill a vampire, it's covered in silver for Werewolves, it was cooled in holy water which will subdue anything, the hilt is iron which will burn a Banshee

*traces with her fingertips the designs with awe*

*stutters, nothing Dad taught her had been like that*
H-h-how?

I'll show you, it's easy

*says in undertone* we may have different ideas on "easy"
*thinks glumly about her meagre control*

Lets go to the Alchemists room

*leaves*

*runs after her*

*Newcomer Ecg Unagi enters the area.*
"Hi,-I'm new here... I figured this is where I'm supposed to go to learn some Elementalism & stuff... Is this correct???"
There is a somewhat dull thud as Ecg *places down his cauldron and sets down all of his bags, satchels, packs, etc.*

[Ecg Unagi]: "...Because, well- Y'see my father, he's this captain, and as for my mom,-she's a ; they literally paid a king's ransom so that I could afford to go and learn here."
*Shuts up to listen & absorb anything new he might learn to (and/or) pick up.*

[Ecg]: ~~D@*n, nobody's here either...~~
*Wanders over to the next couple of rooms, unsure of where he is supposed to go.*

[Ecg Unagi]: *Finally notices somebody (perhaps they be a(one of the) teacher(s)?) else in the room*
"Hello..."
*Does a bit of a bow.*

[Ecg]: "I'd like to seek out training in Elementalism."
~~... Hey,-where'd those two people suddenly go off to? Darn.~~
*Re-exits the room.*

[Ecg Unagi]: *thinks that he has heard a scream*
", that sounded like a for help..."
*s back into the training area.*
"Oh my gosh, does anyone need help?!"
*Expecting to suddenly /bump into some kind of Who-knows-what manner of /h*ll-fiend, Ecg brandishes his halberd*
"..."
~~!!!~~~
