Van Strolled into the Commons Within. Cadra was just leaving, and he gave his daughter a playful nudge as they passed one another. "If you see your aunt, let her know I will be down on the beach with Roland, and don't tease the dogs!." He called out to her as the girl passed down the corridor. "Yeah, yeah..." She replied, the rest of her sentence trailing off as she turned a corner.
Roland was in the Kitchen, and the Drykas entered the kitchen area, picking a pear from the fruit bowl and taking a bite. Around the munched food, he spoke. "Meet you outside the Shelter Cave? I need to grab a few things." He clapped the tall man on the shoulder and made his way out of the large room.
Vanator liked Roland. He was easy to get along with, usually laid back and friendly. Not one to anger easily, or burst into tears, there was an evenness to the man's demeanor. Van appreciated it, though there was much he still did not know about the man from Sunberth, and his past. Kavala had taken him in, Vanator seeing more to his hire than another hand at Sanctuary.
ThoseKavala was beginning to bring in now certainly had qualities that fit another purpose, one the Konti had been working quietly, slowly since before Vanator arrived. She was resurrecting the Cytali. Roland and his penchant for magic, and the Eth Caelum and his mysterious past, were certainly being groomed for the order. Vanator knew he would have some part, accepting his deliverance to Sanctuary was by divine design, as was the arrival of Cadra and Larik, and even Sybel. Until the Drykas knew for sure his part in the secret group would entail, he dutifully assumed the role of armsmaster, preparing the fortified facility and its residents to defend against the potential dangers in their future. Helping Roland to meet that challenge, too, was upon Vanator's shoulders.
The men had agreed to work with each other on some unarmed fighting. Neither of them were well versed, but they figured some sparring would help them practice and learn some things on their own. Van and a small bag packed with thick wool scarves he had borrowed, and he slipped by the armory to grab a few wooden weapons, including daggers, in case they decided to work on weapons too.
Working his way down to the large Shelter Cave and out onto the beach, the Denusk dropped his stuff and began to stretch as he waited for Roland.
