"very good. now whenever you move in any direction the first foot to move is the one that's in that direction. for example. if you move forward you first move your front foot nad than your back foot. if you go right, you move your right followed by your left. Never ever cross your legs.because that's when you are least stable and your reaction time is doubled. Aiden i recommend you to be a bit more light on your feet, so you can move around more, which is crucial for a swordsman. Argurios you will stand a little wider and have a solid stance, that axe of yours is useless in a fight if each swing throws you off balance. and one last thing. in a fight move as much ass possible, standing still means you are the one being hunted and targeted. and do not rush in blindly. Some more experiance fighters will fake a wound to get you to charge and kill you." saying all there was to say Jaim stretched. "Aiden practice moving around in that stance and swinging, and swing with your full body not just hands. I need to talk to brisa, after that we will spar for a moment." Jaim walked to where Laodike was lying took something from his coat and walked towards Brisa. As he reached her he caughed and offerd he an old book. "Here take this. Its like a manual about useful plants in the area. in the army a friend showed me the value of knowing local vegetation. Take it its yours. I memorised it by now."
