Two Rivers Isle And I just stood there like a ghost [AW]

Ulrich was pleased that Lykos was so interested in learning, however... Well, I... I'm not sure what else to tell you. I feel that fighting is best learned through physical practice. There are only so many things I can speak to you about, but without putting them to the test, I don't know how useful the knowledge would be. He puffed out a breath as he thought.

Running away, even temporarily, can sometimes be a good strategy, and I don't see any dishonor in it. If you know the territory better than someone else, you could lead them into a tricky area, like a thick tangle of trees or underbrush. Running through water to make someone lose your scent, or even just to confuse them could also help you, especially when waiting for reinforcements...
