Lan was down by the small outcropping near the forest, the half broken target littering the ground as she carved her way through the taller flimsy dummies with her bow. Moving through an armed force. Granted it didn't move but her task was to learn how to move with enemies around, rather than just in front. Gone was finer, now, simple robes, leather armor, and her bow. A pluck of strings sent an arrow flying ito the imaginary enemie's eye socket. "Stupid." She muttered, lost in thought.

The training ground had become a sanctuary. It was, not peaceful, but it was quiet, and the arc of her blade and the motion of her body proved a necessary distraction from her own unfriendly mind. She had been, for the most part, lucky. The grounds had been empty, or there had been someone about that was not opposed to spar. It had been cathartic, needed. Now the mare stood near the outcropping, gaze out at Lan as she moved like water through the army of training dolls that had been set out. The twang of her bow, the sharp thunk of the arrow as it hit it's mark, and the soft hiss of the noble's voice, unsatisfied. For a second or two she considered walking away, leaving the conquest mare to her training, but in the end the priestess spoke up. "Nice shot." Her voice was hollow, devoid of the usual purr it carried. Just a voice, nothing special.

The voice wasn't immedietly recognized, yet looking to it's source, the darkskin woman's presences was met with a small smile. "Nerugi. A pleasure. And thank you. I'm still slower than I'd like, but, improving." She would need to compensate her size with speed after all. That and brutality. Dusting herself off, she made her way over to the priestess, bowing her head a bit as she neared. "You finished with your day's worth of sweat and sun already or, perhaps-" She motioned to the small area she'd been using. "You might entertain a final spar? I can always use practice in battle navigation."

Those strained eyes slide to the collection of dummies, taking them in, before returning to the noble. "OI'm sure you will get there, you have unwavering resolve." It was something the priestess admired in the smaller mare. She was passionate, fierce even. Relatable, commendable. "I am always eager to test my blade against your bow, Lady Lan." In truth her days training had not yet started, but what better way to kick things off than an a spar with someone she knew would not hold back. Her head dipped, offering a small bow, then the mare was backing up, away, dark blade forming in her hand. HP: 40 DMG: -

Lan bowed her head once more before darting into the throng of dummies. "Your's is the first move."

"With pleasure." Lan moved into the sea of dummies, and Nergui rushed forward as well, weaving, moving through the false bodies in pursuit. As she neared she lashed out, arm sweeping up to trace the tip of the blade against the noble's back. HP: 40 DMG: 2

A death blow so earth to be aimed for- Neru wasn't holding back. All the better. Lan's bow spun in hand, golden arrow fired despite such a close range. HP: 50 DMG: 8

Of course Lan would prove a formidable opponent. That gilded air was fired at damn near point blank range, and shot clear through Nergui's left shoulder as if it were nothing but water. It was a painful hit, and it jerked the mare around with the force, but she did not take the time to favor it, she kept moving forward, pursuing the dainty noble through her army of training bases. "You have grown strong, my Lady." The usual warmth her voice carried for the other mare was gone, but the compliment was sincere despite that. Snapping to the side, through a gap in the stationary figures, the priestess lunged at the conquest mare, dark blade tip aimed to pierce. HP: 32 DMG: 5

"The only way to move is up." Lan replied before shooting another arrow at Neru, wincing at the stab that got her in the side. "There can be no best, only greater." HP: 45 DMG: 12

The arrow struck her solidly, sinking into the meat of her shoulder, and she winced, voice coming in a hiss. "To that I would agree." She kept right on Lan's tail, regardless of the painful bite of the arrows, and swung her arm in another sweeping strike across the other mare's body. HP: 20 DMG: 9

"Then you will understand that in the end, those that will lead must prove they are ready for it. Not just in name, not just in title." She fired again- "They must be ready in mind as well as body. There can be no flaws for a true leader- only perfection." HP: 36 DMG:

"Agreed." And this time it was hissed. Lan would have no way of knowing, but her comments had struck a nerve in an already fragile mind. She did agree, rationally, but that would not keep her from striving for power, or perfection. However out of her reach the latter might be. She lunged, the point of her blade stabbing towards the Noble mare. HP: 20 DMG: 5

Her miss from before had Lan frowning, arrow shifting from gold to green, the smell of decay lightly coming from the weapon. "A leader must also be willing to take risks." He arrow went flying, and Lan's hands burned from doing so. The bane of power was that it bit back. (y2 Gambler's chance used) HP: 10 DMG: 19

The arrow struck, and Nergui's weapon disappeared. Eyes wide, she looked down at the shaft sticking through her chest, knowing the point had cleared her back. It was a well aimed shot, a powerful blow, and the priestess sank to her knees as small hands lifted to curl loosely around the feathers at the end. "Well struck, my lady." Her voice was rough, and she coughed, a touch of blood on her lips as an uneasy laugh bubbled up. She knew she was hurt, but the pain hadn't caught up with her yet. Worrisome all on it's own, but she would be grateful for the delay as long as it allowed her. Gingerly, she touched the point where the arrow and entered. Upper chest, a little to one side, and that was probably all that had kept it from being a very efficient hit. It hadn't hit her heart, and she was almost sorry about that. Almost sorry this innocent little spar hadn't just made all the pain go away. Goddess, she was pathetic. Despair and loss had eaten away at her until nothing was left but a broken shell of a mare.
