"tack, tack, tack"

He made sure not touch anything while walking out and the light dew left on the grasses and the freshness of the air put a smile on his face,being able smell the freshness trees and grass was one of the selling points of the GeoSphere. Ironvale was quiet and nothing but a few drunks wondering about so deucalion decide to head for the Armorer before he head for the Barracks one more time.

"Now Now ,What can i do for you" A grouch tone came from below him as a short and thick bearded man looked up at him.

"I have sum leather to sell,can you help me out" Deucalion moved tot he left having some of the rising light to shine in so he could properly see the mans face,"Put what ever you got on that table over there" he responded while pointing to an empty table in the corner as he walked away.In no time Deucalion had placed his leather out and collected his 70-copper coins and headed for barracks..

Step In!

Step In!!

Step In Closer!!!

When using a sword you must going in and bring up your defenses at the same time. Greggor barking orders and giving fighting instructions could be heard down the street of the east side of town. Deucalion tried his best to enter silently hoping no one would notice but it was all for not as he stepped tot he door Greggor was standing in his path.

"If it isn't the wild fighter" he said while looking in deucalion's direction, There eye's met and greggor strolled over leaving his men to practice.

"Don't !NUN of move you necks!! he shouted while walking over to over,deucalion slightly hesitated seeing the big guy walking up to him.

"Kid i'm sorry about yesterday"

"Huh"

"It was a bad time,bad memories and such"

Still stun by the word deucalion said nothing

"Tell you what,My names Greggor nice to meet you I'm the master at this barracks"

Motioning for deucalion to come in.

"So fighting huh"

"Yah"

"Well what weapon do you fancy" he spoke while chucking

Deucalion paused for a moment thinking about the fight last night and how the short sword felt unusual to him and the Axe was more comfortable.

"Is there a limit to amount of weapons i can use" holding his chin he looked up asking ,Greggor shook his head an answered "no the combinations of weapons are up to you,no restriction but you must understand that you should keep your self balance meaning a combination between a bow and a halberd is not a balance fit"Deucalion nodded and went back into a quick thought.

"I think i'll go with two Axes" Greggor with a bent lip rubbed his chin and turned around looking through the stacks of weapons and pulled out two Steel axes with thick wooden handles woven into the edge with boar line strings.

"Here you go,There on me for yesterday" Deucalion stood struck for a second "Thank you"He took hold of them and they registered.

"Hey Master Greggor quick question, I want to raise my stat is there a way to do so" Greggor looked over after sheathing his sword "All you have to do is Fight and fight with power,HAAHA"

Deucalion accepted with a frown that was not what he wanted to hear but as the thought of the fight rushing through his body got him excited so he said his goodbyes and dashed out to the plains and stared out at the roaming boars and began fighting under the rising sun.

Alright "the grind won stop" he thought he place everything into the pouch and headed towards the forest.

SSShiiittt, I dont have any potions or spells that recover my health" the sudden thought halted him in his tracks as he tracked through the woods following the foot prints of a few wolves. The sun gently declined bringing the orange glow sun setting which lit the forest on fire and the wind blew through it kicking up the scents of all it's creatures.

"Grr"

"Grrr"

The sounds of chomping and the biting began to echoed outwards catching deucalion's attention so he headed for it direction but before he knew it "Grr,Grr,Grr" six of them descended on him
