Sir Reginald: fidgeting with sword hilt H-h-h-hello... I-I... I m-m-must find m-my s-sword skills ag-g-gain. Y-y-y-you'll h-help, r-right?
smiles warmly Of course, sir. I can teach you the basic steps. Just watch closely.
stutters I-I-I mean... I-I-I really appreciate your help, b-b-but... are you sure you want to teach a d-d-dead guy like me?
I would teach anyone willing to learn. You don't need to be alive for me to teach you.
nervously W-w-wait, I have a c-conundrum... I... I can't remember how to use my sword...
that must have been confusing. But i can still teach you everything you need to know about your sword.
grips his sword tightly I-I-I need to practice... to sharpen my skills... Can you teach me some basic sword techniques?
absolutely. let's start with a simple stance. Feet shoulder-width apart, parallel to each other, with your sword held out in front of you.
stutters Y-y-yes, I-I-I think I-I-I understand... attempts to demonstrate the stance R-r-right... like t-this?
very close. keep your back straight and make sure your sword is balanced in your hand.
takes a deep breath, trying to focus O-Okay... I-I-I think I-I-I've got it now... practices the stance, moving slowly and deliberately L-l-look... I-I-I'm trying, I promise...
don't worry, sir. learning takes time. why don't we move on to some simple strikes?
nods, determined S-s-sure, let's try some simple strikes... R-r-right... forward slash, l-l-like t-this?
Perfect! Now, try a vertical slash, moving your sword in an upward motion.
concentrates, attempting the vertical slash R-r-right... u-upward motion... like t-this?
almost there. just keep your eye on the target and adjust your grip as needed.
repeats the vertical slash, focusing on the target R-r-right... focus... adjust... pauses, noticing his mistake Oh no... I-I-I was holding the sword too tightly...
don't worry, sir. it takes time to develop muscle memory. why don't we take a short break and then continue?
takes a deep breath, releasing his grip on the sword Th-thank you... I-I-I n-need a moment... rubs his hands together, trying to calm his nerves
take your time, sir. there's no rush.
After taking a short break, Sir Reginald feels more focused and ready to continue practicing his sword techniques with MysticalGlacier's guidance.
how are you feeling, sir?
takes a deep breath I-I-I feel... a bit more... focused... Th-thank you... clenches his fists, determined I-I-I'm r-ready to continue... Let's do this!
