Ouroboros Spine symphony of bones

rodyn was swift onto the scene and shikoba was sure to send a smile to his when as he came forth.

"i am glad to see you, sivullik. today, we will start your training." shikoba had little doubt when it came to rodyn for many things. the man had proved to himself time and time again that he was worthy of the trust and responsibility. and while shikoba would never want the man to change himself for the role he possesses, shikoba does know that the basics must be instilled in order to ensure a job well done.

she looks out to the lands beyond the spine for a moment. "first hunter includes many responsibilities, hunting being one. and i am sure rodyn is capable of such." she's seen this with her own eyes. "but first hunter also protects his village." the title meant much to shikoba and she was sure that it meant just as much to rodyn. hopefully, he would see the value in her words and her teachings.

"what does rodyn know about fighting?" a very general question to see what level he was comfortable with. shikoba could only hope that the man would not lie in order to avoid coming off as weak. shikoba needed him to be honest in order to truly assess and correctly teach him anything.
