Moonspear the dwarven forge

That's a nice thought, Nikai said when Alya mentioned visiting Valette, Leta and the others soon. He was looking forward to visiting his old home. Missed it, often, even though this was his home now. It was hard to let go of these things, even with the wanderlust he held in his paws as much as Alya did in hers. But she understood, he knew that.

Alya at first seemed to think that fighting was a necessary skill, but then turned around and suggested she could take over the training from Hydra. Nikai smiled -- he liked that idea -- and nodded. There's a deal. I can check whether you're actually qualified to protect me from the dangers of the world at the same time. Nikai shot her a sassy grin as he said this, clearly meaning it playfully. When he thought about it, he had never actually seen Alya properly fight anyone or anything outside a hunt. Hopefully it would never be necessary to truly witness such a thing.
