'Give me a moment.' I asked, panting heavily. 'Please.'
'Listen.' Replied a masculine young voice, I sighed in slight irritation. 'You won't get any breaks during the battle.

You know how much.' As the voice said this, it softened. I sighed again.
'I know' I admitted more softly, and I had the impression that he nodded. 'Sorry. I want to help as best I can, it's just...it's hard.'
'I know' he repeated, I took a sip of water from a bottle standing on the floor. 'It wasn't easy for me to learn it either. Again? Your parents would be proud if they saw you know.'
I felt a little choking in my throat and nodded, going back to practising with the daggers in my hands.
