Lorag did not seem to be paying a great deal of attention before Gallus called his name. He looked up, almost in confusion for a few moments before he put together what Gallus was asking. "Oh, no let me...rest a bit. Just take the boy or somethin'." He answered. It was strange for him to say that he was tired, as he would rarely admit fatigue even when it was more than justified. Though, perhaps even more strange was that he did not so much as acknowledge Gallus' joke. 

Kaleeth gave a quick chuckle. "Heh, no promises." She joked as she took up her guard stance. As opposed to when she fought back on the ship, her stance was much more proper. Her feet were spaced perfectly apart, with her hands ready to both attack and defend. It had not been all that difficult for either of them to learn the stances, attacks, and defenses, but the real difficulty came in being able to remember them in the heat of a fight. They had to be able not just to act with proper form, but to [i]react[/i] with proper form in a stressful situation. That was something that Kaleeth had definite trouble with, and was far from mastering. Regardless, she began with the first attack, though it was more of a feint. She rushed forward quickly, as if she was going to attack, but then stopped just in front of him in a defensive stance. She hoped to provoke a counter for an attack that did not come, which might give her an opening.

Ma'tanza shook her head. "No, because then the heart wouldn't be able to do everything it is supposed to. Well...that's not exactly true. There are some creatures with only one chamber in their hearts, but they are little, simple creatures. Like worms and such. More complicated bodies need more complicated hearts...Ma'tanza thinks, at least. This one admits she is not an expert on the exact reasons everything is how it is in the body. She just knows what she was taught by her mentor. But the heart is one of the first things she learned about, so she knows about it. Some of the chambers pump the blood to the lungs and back, and others pump it to the rest of the body. If the blood wasn't able to get to the lungs, then it would be useless to the rest of the body. Now, shall we move on? This time, Ma'tanza would like you to cut out the next organ. Ask questions if you see anything curious."
