Well, I have my own arms... 

And armor...

I have a couple swords, and several other weapons, but no pictures of them...

Kyn nodded as he appraised the young man's posture and stance, he hadn't yet fell into his own defensive posture.

"You usually fight with two blades, no?" giving Ignis the opportunity to arm himself as he wished, however, as he said it he did bring his lathe up into a defensive stance, it wasn't quite Unfolding the Fan, but it was close enough that it was recognizable. 

Once they were both armed properly, Kyn said "begin," and settled fully into his defenisive posture and waited on the younger man to attack. It was an old style of training, to let the new comer exhaust themselves on his defense and only strike when a true error had been made, but he'd found it effective over the years. Just telling someone how to fight dod not work nearly so well as first showing them you credentials and then beginning instruction. 

"I don't have anything more pressing to do, I'd be happy to begin your training. But first we should see where you're at..." Kyn set aside his sword belt, hanging it from one of the posts of the sparring ring, and took up a bundled lathe. He gestured for Ignis to take up he wished from the collected trainers an waited for the younger man to step into the ring first. 

Once they were inside, Kyn settled into his comfortably familiar stance, sword held down by his side as if it were in a sheath. "You're a borderlander, I don't expect I'll have to show you how to hold a sword, or which end to use, so first thing is Stance. Get into your normal fighting stance."

At this point I think the next step is to reconvene when everything has been gathered off-screen and it is time for the next act of the plan to begin, by travelling to Seanchan-held lands. 

Welcome DJ, cause nicknames...

Lan is also my favorite character from WoT, just the right amount of 'I'm here to do whatever' with 'I can kick your ass at whatever moment I feel so inclined.'

"I disagree, Aes Sedai," Kyn said, looking at Loraine, "we should be taking guards, and Warders if a sister has one. I wouldn't be left here if you were going, and I wouldn't ask another to stay behind while their duty goes into danger. It isn't right. I think we could easily take 4-6 more posing as guards for a merchant's caravan. Assuming we can still use that to travel by?"

"I can collect the men we'll need, as I do not recall either of you Sisters as being bonded, if you wish?"

So, we're blaming Jen? I'm okay with that plan...

Grab me? Or did you mean Arinth?

Yes, but you're likely to have to put that staff hat on a lot more now... enjoy!

Hey... what was that for?

Yes, that's likely to come up way more often now... fair warning.

Heh... sucks being staff, don't it?

We'd violate the PG-13 sign if we fought... just FYI.

Visible? I am not!

That's just mean! I beat off a horde already! 

 

Do you want me to play, too?? O.o

You like swinging swords...

What do you think? *smirks*

Nor is the day after that...

You would have had to have had hope for it to die.

Not expecting, no.

 

When does the Mumsy's Away party start?

 

Oh, and be safe Elgee! See you on the other side.

 

 

I'm very disappointed in you. That party should have started HOURS ago already!

 

Who says it hasn't and I am practicing misdirection?

Wouldn't hurt... I mean, no one else has offered... yet.

I'm not sure I will, I might need consoling.

When does the Mumsy's Away party start?

Oh, and be safe Elgee! See you on the other side.

Hmmm, disappointing...

You sure?

Maybe one other non-Red Shirt swordsman... and some fodder, yes.
