Chapter 5: Visiting the City

M:   The brothers and Mandoria bid Saxon good night, and they too decided it was time to hit the hay. Mandoria was also worried the kids might try something so he made sure their window was locked because they preferred to sneak in through windows rather than doors. The two weren't actually planning a prank tonight, they didn't even have a snake to put in Saxon's bed, but they were going to get him eventually.

"Father, you never told us who you found today," Mandara said before Mandoria left. The king hesitated, should he tell them who he found, how would they react?

"It was England," he eventually said, "he and Saxon don't get along that well so he came looking for him."

The brothers exchanged looks of understanding, they remember that Saxon said he and his son don't like each other, "yeah, Sir Saxon told us that too," Derogan said, "he said that he didn't like him because of his eyes, which seems like a stupid reason to hate someone for."

"Well, that's just how it is sometimes, like how humans with white skin think they're above those with darker skin." Mandoria said, he didn't want to mention the insurgent stuff, "but let us not discuss this before bed, you two get some rest now, and don't play any pranks."

"Ok, goodnight Father," the brothers said in unison, Mandoria smiled and kissed them goodnight on the forehead, and left once they were tucked in. As he walked to his room, he was thinking over the events of that day, and wondering how cautious of Saxon should he be.

N:   Just as he was waking up, Saxon squinted as his room was filled with light. He sat up, looked out of the window, and realized that the sun was high in the sky, which annoyed him. Why had he not slept in the night before? When he had eventually pulled himself out of bed and gotten ready, he opened the door and peeked outside, hoping there were no prankster princes around with reptiles. Heading towards the dining hall to eat, he realized that he did not feel that hungry so instead he headed towards the training grounds.

When he arrived there, he saw that there were no knights there, so he decided to set out ten targets to practice. Inside the small building, he tried to find some throwing knives but only found daggers, which he decided will do just fine.

When he grabbed a bunch, he headed outside and plopped them next to him so that he was ten meters in front of the first target. Picking up a dagger, it felt reassuring in his hand as he balanced it in his hand. He stared at the target, lifted up his arm, and flicked the dagger.

It hit right in the center. Satisfied with the result, he moved on to the next target, repeating the process but adding ten meters every time. Each dagger met its target; however, the last two skewed a bit to the side, so Saxon repeated those two again until they hit the center.

M:   The Mandorians had been up for a while, Mandoria and Derogan were busy with his lessons, which he hated but wouldn't say anything about it. Mandara's teacher had called in sick so he had another day off, and not knowing what to do, he decided to go into the forest near the training grounds to hang out with his bird friends.

As Mandara was talking to a raven that he had become good friends with, he heard some noises coming from the training ground behind him, he turned to it and saw Saxon out practicing. Since he had nothing else to do, he decided to go over and say hi, the raven following close behind.

Mandara stepped out into the open and called, "Dahver Sir Saxon, decided to sleep in?"

N:   "Seems my body decided to go rogue and sleep in," he scoffed as he threw another knife, which embedded in the center of the target. He hummed in content, grabbed hold of another dagger and planned where it should land. He got bored of the repetitiveness by then so he decided to mix it up and form a ring with the daggers on a target.
