Ri'vashi chuckled. "Yes, well, father always said this one had a keen eye, even for a Khajiit. He always had a lot of good things to say about her, really. Well, when he wasn't berating her for her failures. No matter how much he cared about Ri'vashi, he never went easy on her. He treated this one like a soldier, probably because he never expected to be a father. This one still remembers his surprise when he started to realize that Ri'vashi was growing bigger than him. He probably did not know that Khajiit could grow so large before he found her."

Kaleeth grinned, then walked over to the weapon racks to put away her practice blade. She set aside the cloak she had been wearing, leaving her with a simple loincloth. Stepping back into the pit, she stood close to Janius and spoke up a bit more quietly than before. "So, um, how...rough should we be?" She asked. In order to really sate her more violent tendencies, she needed fights that did not involve pulling punches as much as in normal sparring matches. Though they had been rather brutal, the fights back on the ship that had taken them out of Senchal had been perfect in that regard.

"Don't worry." Ma'tanza said reassuringly. "As long as you don't damage the organs, it should be fine. The ribs are tough to get out, as they well should be. They're there to protect some of our most important organs, so this one would be worried if they were easy to rip out."

It took a good deal of effort to rip out each of the ribs, but eventually, they had full access to the chest cavity. Most of the organs it contained Tzirret was likely already familiar with on a basic level, so she could get into more detail. First, she cut out both the lungs and heart and set them aside, then showed him the exact path of the major arteries once they were out of the way. Afterwards, she took the heart and one of the lungs, then carefully cut them in half in such a way as to provide him a cross section of each. 

"Okay, the heart is, obviously, one of the most important organs in the body for a healer. There are a lot of organs that people need to live, but if the heart stops beating, the person is as good as dead unless it can be restarted very quickly. So, you need to know how it works. As you can see, the heart has four chambers that the blood pumps through. That's the same for Khajiit, Humans, and Elves alike. Argonians are a bit different, since their hearts only have three chambers. Still, they both do the same thing."
