Fencing Club - Salle, After Classes

[once-a-traitor.livejournal.com]

Edmund arrived earlier than necessary to make sure the practice swords were out and the area was clear for use. He waited for everyone to arrive and noted silently that this definitely wasn't the kind of club roster he'd been expecting. Still, they wanted to learn, so he would do his best.

"Welcome to Fencing Club. I believe I know most of you now. My name is Edmund Pevensie. The school has seen fit to have Professor Algren supervise us. There are a few ground rules as we'll be dealing with objects that can kill you if you use them improperly. Treat every weapon seriously, even if it's a wooden practice sword, and treat your opponent with respect.

This week will be informal. Please go around the room and introduce yourself and tell everyone what, if any, experience with fencing or swordwork you have. It's okay if you don't have any. We'll work on that."

"I am Lion-o," he said, "and while I've fought with a sword from time to time, the Sword of Omens tends to do a lot of the fighting for me. I'm hoping to gain some new skills that don't depend on having a magical sword available."

"If you're used to the movements that come with fighting with a sword, you'll find it easy enough to pick up standard moves with practice."
