Hey! Korra, here-

Would anyone happen to know anything about fighting with swords? I got a pair from the "Krissmis" ship. I think they're Fire Nation... [not that anybody is going to have a clue what that means...] Broadswords, maybe? They look pretty old fashion, but they're in good shape.

I just have no idea how to use them. I want to, though! I could pay for lessons and everything.

Are they straight and double edged or curved and single edged?

They're... slightly curved. And single edged.

Sounds like a Dao. I have some experience with them.

I am an expert swordsman. If you would like to learn how to use those weapons I could offer some instruction.

You could?! That would be awesome!

Have you ever handled a sword before?

The Fire Nation?

[A frown, is she from his world as well?]

Of the five great nations in the ninja world?

Edited 2013-12-27 22:00 (UTC)

[And here Korra was getting excited. Someone else from home!

Right up until the word "five". Womp womp.]

Er, no. The Fire Nation is one of four in my world. And... what's a ninja?

There are more than five, in all truthfulness, but there are five considered the largest. I am from the Village Hidden in the Leaves [Konohagakure, or just Konoha.] within the Land of Fire.

Ninja are the main fighters and protectors of these countries. [To put it in the most simple terms.]

I can't offer you any assistance, but I wish you luck. My own gift was a weapon. Thankfully, there was an instructional book included. Of course... one cannot learn swordsmanship from a book. Not properly.

Thanks!

...

What kind of weapon comes with an instruction book?

[She knows there are books and old scrolls of fighting forms, but...]

They make books for everything. It has a few useful pictures and diagrams, but, for the most part, it won't help much without a proper teacher.

[swords? that is the magic word!]

A pair. A matched set?

Yeah. They fit back to back into one sheath.

[clinking in the background as she slides them out]

Interesting.

But if you don't know the first thing about swordsmanship, nitoryu isn't the easiest place to start.

I wish I could help you, but the people I know who could use swords aren't here.

Yeah, there... doesn't seem to be any real pattern to who gets brought here and who doesn't.

I use two keyblades. I don't know if that's the same thing though.

No... I've never heard of a keyblade.

I don't exactly use a sword, but I could probably help with the basics. And give you someone to train against, at least.

That'd be great! Definitely easier to at least spar with someone on the same ship.
