Time Stamp: 25th of Summer, 514AV
Location: Second Quiver
Who: Valdr
As Turrin walked into the Second Quiver, the endal felt like his skills with a short bow was improving enough to practice on dummy animals. He knew as of late that he could hit inside the center ring just above the bulls eye, so he knew now it was time to practice on irregular targets. Where the bulls eye wasn't always the kill shot. Looking at the archery range, Turrin noticed the range was packed with Avora or Chiet shooting or waiting to shot. There was a few Endal already shooting already, so the half-breed said simply to the range manager, “I need a spot to shoot. Can you help me?” The Avora recognized him as a endal and said with a weary smile, “Yes, I see a few Chiet practicing right now. Let me tell them their time is up, Endal.” Turrin gave him a nod, leaned up against the counter, and started to watch the crowd. Before the riots, Turrin considered himself a passive endal who aloud the lower castes a little leeway towards him, but the crimes and horrors of the lower castes during the winter months hardened the Endal. He realized if the lower castes were left to their own devices. They would cannibalize themselves, so the myrian decided that he would be symbol of order in this chaotic city and behave how his caste should act.
When the range manager came back, the orange haired man said with a smile, “I found you a open spot. The chiets graciously left on his own accord.”
Turrin looked over the manager's shoulder and saw a pair of chiet giving him the stink eye when they walked by. The endal eyes lingered on them till they were out of sight and said with a smile, “Yes...I am they were just eager to leave.”
Pushing himself up from the counter, Turrin felt kind of generous and said with smile to the manager, “If there is someone waiting for a spot, you can give them the opportunity to shoot with me. It would be nice to bird shyke with someone today.”
The manager said with a nod, “I will keep your offer in mind. Follow me Endal.”
Turrin followed the manager through the crowd. The endal wondered if it was a bad idea to come to Second Quiver, but a part of him hoped he would see anyone that he recognized like Syveris or Azira. He knew Drusilla was learning to shot a bow, but he had to wonder how much time the symenestra would put into archery with her interest in weaving. When he got to the spot, Turrin said to the manager, “Can you have a dek fetch me a bundle of arrows?” The manager nodded and left him. Turrin looked around and saw the Avora gave him plenty of room, so the endal unbuckled his talon sword scabbard and laid it up against the firing wall. Taking the short bow from his shoulder, he tested the firmness. Knowing next to nothing about fetching, the endal just shrugged to himself.
Seeing a dek scurry up with a bundle of arrows, Turrin felt sorry for her, because the whole left side of her face was badly scarred and left eye was clouded over. The dek couldn't look up at him, but he could tell that she was shaking, so the myrian took the bundle from her and said softly, “I can tell your scared by your trembling, but you have no reason to be scared of me. You did a good job bringing me these arrows so quickly.” The dek looked at his face for a moment, and she smiled slightly and quickly fled. Turrin watched her flee, and he realized there was a rumor circulating around about him eating a dek during the riots. Might have contributed to her fright. Turrin sighed to himself and walked back to the archery wall.
