She's nit aiming and she'll have turned into a three and a half legged rat and hoofed it away by the time he gets up.


I have an idea for dealing with that bit. Just wondering if I should post before or after Free.
If someone wants to contact her, keeping the Pit independent of the gangs is a good enough cause in her eyes.
Tir is probably one of the few bounty hunters known not to be in the pocket of any of the gangs. Though, it does take convincing to get her to accept other kinds of jobs. If the former owner had dealings with bounty hunters, he might have had her contact information, and maybe some notes on her.
I've been busy as of late, but I know I need to do something with Tir. Since Shetland isn't going to be here, I need to find something Tir would reasonably be involved in. Unfortunately, I have her at her home right now. Perhaps someone could contact her?
Alright. I'm feeling pretty tired tonight, though. I'm out for pretty much all day on monday, so they're long days. A summarize/timeskip post might take a bit, so it might be tomorrow.
How long do you think we should keep going with the duels? I had mostly just intended to have the duel with Lorag before moving on. I do feel we should get moving towards the finale of this section.
While Peiter perked up and headed over to Gallus, Kaleeth raised her hands to guard again Janius' attacks towards her head, since that was the part of her she needed most to protect. However, when he lunged forward with a punch, she did something different. Instead of trying to block, she accepted the hit. She did attempt to move to the side slightly so that he would hit her shoulder, but she mainly attempted to use the opening it provided to land a heavy punch to his stomach, followed by as many smaller punches as she could get in. She was forgoing defense to land as many attacks as she could, in the hopes of just outlasting him through endurance.

Ma'tanza actually seemed somewhat excited with Tzirret's question. It was something she found interesting, and that she hoped he would as well. "Oh, the liver does a lot of things. It does a lot to the blood flowing through the body, sort of like a filter. One of the most interesting things that it does is to deal with poisons and other toxins. Like the heart, the livers of Khajiit, Humans, and Elves, are all pretty similar, but Argonians are pretty different. Theirs is very, very strong. There's pretty much no toxin it can't handle. Luckily, healing it isn't much more complicated; you just have to return it to its natural state. Now, wounds to the liver can be tricky. It is a vital organ, but it won't kill someone immediately if it is damaged. However, there's so many blood vessels around it, and flowing into it, that wounds in that area can bleed a lot. If you can get to them quickly enough, you can save them, and it usually isn't as quick as a blade to the heart, but a lot of people bleed out before healers can get to them."

As the lesson continued, Ma'tanza proceeded in directing Tzirret to take out specific organs, then explaining what they were on a basic level. She wanted to give him a comprehensive view on anatomy so he would have the examples in his mind for future healing lessons. Certainly, this would probably not be something he would easily forget.

5 spikes will still escape, though much better than the original 27 if you did nothing.


Nice, the odds of those hitting anything important couldn't be high, given the ratio of nonimportant space to important space. Especially with Grey blocking the important space.

Luckily for Grey, bone is a material notable for not being as strong as steel.
I got in one post between classes, though I'm going to be home rather late tonight, so my next one may be delayed.
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 react 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."
