Sunlight trickled in streams through the swaying curtains of the inn room, laying across the Au'Ra that was on the bed. Â Goro lay on his back, and let out a groan. Â Everything on him hurt, from the tips of his hair to the tip of his tail.
I think Master Hamon made me use parts of my body I didn't know I had ...
As his eyes looked to the ceiling, unfocused, his mind wandered back to yesterday. Â Then, Master Hamon had Goro show what he knew of fighting. Â The elder hyur said he was impressed, but felt Goro wasn't using all of his ability. Â That got his scales twitching. Â He had trained for years at home!
But Master Hamon was right. Â The old hyur showed Goro new moves, how to weave and dodge better, and how to use his tail as a defensive weapon. Â Of course, all this went on for hours, and after the adrenaline wore off ...
NNNGH ... I don't think I can feel my legs anymore ...
He did receive a battered old book, detailing different creatures in the immediate area. Â Master Hamon wanted him to train himself on finding and defeating one of each creature, then make a note of their fighting style and abilities. Â The Au'Ra readily agreed, as learning about one's opponent was very important.
But for now, Goro grimaced as he struggled to move his hand to get the glass of water nearby.
