Never Trust the Rules

Bastien took a moment to consider her question, his gaze sweeping the increasingly darkening surroundings. We've spent enough time outdoors for today. We should return to the Keep, he declared, rising to his feet and dusting off his now dry clothes.

It had proven to be an interesting outing, he’d never really considered whether or not Siora could swim, it simply hadn’t come up before. He was glad it had though, any weakness in Siora meant she wasn’t as valuable to him as she could be. This needed to be rectified and soon.

We’ll set up a training schedule for you to fit in with your regular duties tomorrow. Because it wasn’t like he was going to give her more time to fit in the training, no it would have to be fit in with all the duties they already have to perform every day, without question. He would be glad to be back at the Keep for the evening, he was tired, but didn’t want to show how tired in front of Siora, in case she got any bright ideas. Never show weakness, never back down.
