13th of Spring, 514 A.V. 9th Bell 34th chime.
The weather was lovely this day, Kreig had to admit as he held a round shield in his left hand and a blunt longsword in the other. He was becoming better, he liked to think so anyway, but there was improvement and he was told that much. He wore a full suite of platemail and that annoyed him to no end, he hated wearing a full suit ' Its too cumbersome' He thought 'Why can't I fight with just my usual attire? They offered enough protection.
Unfortunately, the reasoning of his patron was that, other then he had no choice especially if the mission demands it, one a squire is knighted they are presented with a suit of plate male that is fit to their size. Other than being the foremost symbol of being a member of the order and the authority it brings, it would also be a shame to not know how to move in it. She also listed the benefits whilst he also thought of the cons.
Fact of the matter was, he liked the pros but he hated the cons. Sure he would recieve full protection, but movement would be cumbersome and in combat it was difficult to fight in unless he had intensive training with a suit. Still, at least the reason he was wearing it WAS for a fight, and his opponent was none other than Dalavesta Stalinsa, one of his comrades during the previous War Game....but that was a different tale for another time.
The only thing now was that he had a chance to test his skills against hers, he imagined that when it comes to those she was perhaps better than he ' Petch its hot under here' He thought as he looked through the visor [/i]' And it smelled, how can they stand wearing this?!'[/i] He shook his head, his suit ellixiting a metallic sound. The only thing he was confident about currently was his grip upon both sword and shield as he moved the shield forward with his sword behind.
"Hello Staltinsa, your day treating well I hope?"
