Training in a forest cave

" I don't really know the one time I was allowed to leave the house my sister bet me in a match version an amazon which I lost and was taken as her captive instead." " She taught me how to fish along with how to pick out ripe wild fruit from older fruit along with not to take too much, but just enough to survive." We traveled pretty far from where I was won by her which I now know it was to make it tougher for my mother to send her troops after me along with give me the collar I wear to allow me to understand and communicate."

"Well, it is a good thing you are far from her in this case," said Cedric in understanding. "Looks like she has poisoned a good number of people including her own family....that devil."

"The nightmares of what she made me do for her entertainment along with fill the house coffers with wealth." I was the more popular when there was parties over my sisters who didn't take their training as serious as I did."

"Your sisters? Them too? Oh, this is more serious than I thought." Cedric felt deep concern for Xerxan's sisters for they followed their mother for so long they don't realize how far they were from the truth.

"They are completely devoted to their goddess they learned to serve from their mother which it wasn't as important for me learn enough to become devoted."

"There are ways to serve their goddess other than following such a bad influence." said Cedric. "Anyway, so you were found by Arasinya?"

" I seen the signs that one of those nasty storms were approaching so I moved my camp to the cave I been staying in so I can stay safe." " It was just her luck that she picked the exact same cave to take shelter in from the storm which I didn't have the heart to chase her out of the cave."

"I'm presuming you two had some time to know each other and even test your strengths against each other?"

" We spared and talked during the time we were trapped together in the cave" as he looks at Arasinya to help confirm that's all that went on in the cave.

Arasinya nodded to confirm Xerxan's story. "I was able to learn more about what he went through and offered any assistance I can."
