"If Ellich wasnt there then I still would have done it. Everyones life is worth somthing, you are just one of the ones who dont get that." ALdar turned away for the third time from Dengoro. "You know whats not worth anything? Me trying to make a better impression on you."

"Everyone's life is worth something... Obviously not enough for you to stop messing around with that sword," Dengoro retorted fiercely. "You can't try to kill me and then make up the next week. It just doesn't work that way!"

"Mess...MESSING AROUND WITH MY SWORD! I think I know what I am doing with this sword. You got that?!?! If I cant at least try to be friends with you then there is nothing I can do with you. YOU MESS AROUND WITH YOUR SWORD. YOU CAN HARDLY WEILD IT!" Aldar was yelling at the top of his lungs at the skunk.

"Why am I even trying to talk to you?... What don't you get about this? You tried to kill me. Whether you like it or not, that drives a pretty big wedge between us." Dengoro stood up slowly before he continued. "...As for my own sword... Give me a break. I'm good enough to have gotten past basic training, but I don't have a world of talent over here, just my practicing... Don't tell me you're gonna rip me up over that, too."

Aldar turned silent. This skunk felt like an enemy all over again. "So then why do you practice with it if its never going to help you. All you did when I came was lay down and cry!"

"Well, it's my only skill now, so here I am, enlisted... Really... Why do I practice with it? Well, back when my dad was still alive, it gave me something to do while he wasn't practicing using his sword on me." Dengoro had been a victim of far more than was widely known. Practicing with a sword gave him something to do while spending time mercifully alone.

"Heh whatever, so far that sword has proven useless to you know hasnt it." Aldar lost color in his face. He really could care less about this skunk now.

"No, not really... It's gotten me a job, hasn't it? If it weren't for my way around this blade I'd be stuck without any occupation at all and then I'd probably starve to death. Not that I'm not close to that as it is." The only job he had been able to train for without his father's help was a military one. With no financial support of parental origin, he was now on his own and had to put what rudimentary, self-taught knowledge he had to the the test. And it failed.

"And you think you are the only beast without a father? Without the support of anyone? The warrior juob is full of people like that. Your blade got you a job, but it didnt get you anything but that..."

"Well, a job is what I need, isn't it? I don't doubt I have company when it comes to not having a father. But I have nobody else, either, and only one developed skill. Even if it's not developed so well, how much choice does it give me? This is all I can do, Aldar. It's the only thing that gives me what I need to stay alive, even if it does eventually kill me." Dengoro wasn't staying alive very well, though. He'd sold all he didn't absolutely need, and had this job, and he still had barely enough money to get food. That barracks food was inedible for him.

"Good luck with that." Aldar turned. "And if you think that blade is usefull enough to you Ill give you this. Tonight I am going to be in the training grounds. Ill spar you there, with wooden swords. If you win you might win some money." Aldar turned. He really wanted to see how good Dengoro was with that blade. Even if Aldar one, ALdar would at least give Dengoro some money. It looked like he needed it. "So will you be there?"

"Uh... Sure." Dengoro didn't have much to lose... Except for his life, of course. There was little else he valued. Losing a sparring match would be another problem he didn't have the energy to deal with.
