Continuation
“Sixteen. It’s a number. And as for that blade you want to loop the belt over your shoulder.” A number? Infilia wondered what a number was in common. Though, her track of thought was lost as Alex told her how to handle the sheath of the Shamshir, it turned out he's quite observant, and Infilia somehow didn't like it. It made her feel slightly awkward, embarrassed, she slung it over her shoulder, and under her arm, her hand resting above the middle of the sheath lightly.
"Oh." She said, looking at the man as the two continued on, through the streets.
“I’m more than willing to teach you. Though. I wouldn’t mind learning some of your language in return.”Her, teach... Infilia isn't a teacher. She gets embarrassed when she's trying to show one of the younger Vanthas how to play a small tune, or tell stories. She commonly gets shy when she' s playing at the Red Diamond Tavern back in Avanthal. She wasn't sure if she were fit to teach Alex Common, but she could start trying. Right... at least, she's more comfortable around Alex than a perfect stranger.
"Okay. But, take... time." She paused, "Also singing, practice more you must." She said with a quiet whisper, as she followed Alex's lead at keeping things at a low. She was pretty close to Alex by this point, not exactly touching him, but close enough where the sheath of the Shamshir could touch him.
"Well if you want me to train you the best idea would be to find somewhere empty that I can teach you in.” Empty? This whole city is crawling with people, how on Mizahar will they find a place that's empty. In the distance, Infilia stood on her toes, trying to get a better look of the city, there seemed to be something fuzzy going on some feet down. Alex lead the two down some more passageways that leads towards a set of stairs. Confused, Infilia walked up it anyhow, as she didn't want to lose Alex.
The stairs opened up an open chamber, one squared chamber, and there seemed to be a mat along the floor. “I can teach you here.” Alex spoke, Infilia was confused still, why would Ionu answer to his calling, and not know that he has a Vantha? Most definitely, she might know, but perhaps she's letting Infilia slide? Who would know? "Okay..." She said, Infilia awkwardly had trouble with pulling out the sword after she pulled it off her shoulder. She held the blade with both hands at the hilt, the blade tilted upwards, she took her stance. It wasn't perfect, but she stood with both feet apart from each other.
“Though Infilia, if you want to learn you have to know one thing. You’re going to hurt people. Like it or not, you’ll have too. Otherwise they’ll do worse to you.” Infilia was uncertain, she figured that she would be capable enough to hide whilst outside in Alvadas. She wondered if she can try and go out herself some time, and hopefully not wander into that jungle again. She was silent, almost awestruck as Alex told her about harming people.
"Me use. Last... resort." She paused, arching a brow. "Quick run." She said, she took hold of the blade with her left hand, as she gestured her fingers in a motion to look as if she were running.
“Now if you want to train with me draw your sword, if you have the will.”She nodded, already ahead of Alex, she wanted to know if her positioning was right, was it?
"This good?"
"Oh." She said, looking at the man as the two continued on, through the streets.
