*Alanna's eyes gleam as she moves through the positions and motions that she's practiced since childhood. Her muscles remember the moves and flow from one to the other automatically, leaving Alanna free to watch the other two women. Elaine arcs her blade up and around and Alanna nods with approval. She shifts her eyes to Svava and feels a momentary sadness.
Alanna really hopes she can make a difference for her friend.
Bringing her sword around in a side strike, Alanna grins. If her invisible opponent is Hannibal Lecter, no one else is the wiser for it. She shifts her body to the right and ends the drill, sword held in a two handed guard stance.*
Well done, both of you. Elaine, you've improved greatly. Svava, you are having the same trouble Elaine did initially. Keep your elbows up, and your wrists firm. But otherwise? I'm quite impressed. You are graceful, and pick up the foot work easily. Any questions before we start sparring?
