Hey there! You can just call me Alphen. I've already encountered many warriors and seasoned soldiers. We have strong fighters here.

I'm interested in seeing weaponry or combat gear. There are some really neat swords with intriguing designs. Still, I know that a weapon can be lethal all the same. So I've been meaning to ask a question as well.

For what reason would you fight?

I fight to protect my friends. I want to use my strength for the right reasons.

Granted, all I know how to do is wield a sword. I'd be more than glad to put those skills to use. I'm willing to spar and exchange combat moves with someone. Maybe we can learn with one another. I can't exactly let my blade rust when seriously powerful beasts could attack at any moment.

It does seem that way, unfortunately.

[And his just gets hit by so many different fronts it's probably disconcerting that's become almost commonplace.]

But you speak in past tense. If you don't mind sharing, what was happening in yours?

[refire]

I fought to liberate Calaglia from the people who choose to oppress it.

There's at least three hundred years of conflict and bad blood. Things are starting to change now but it's not over yet.

[flamekthunder]

That sounds like a difficult endeavor. Did you have a large group?

[refire]

So many people came to support that cause so I didn't manage it all on my own.

That's something I'll always be thankful for. What about you? Do you have allies you can count on?

[flamekthunder]

Yes. And I'll always be grateful to them.
