Ow.

[Casper sounds... irritated, which is somewhat unusual for him.]

Okay. Ugh. I give up. I'm tired of this. Is there a way to shoot a bow and arrow and not hit yourself in the face? There's gotta be, I see it on TV all the time.

... Maybe I'm just dumb, I don't know.

Do not give up so quickly! The bow takes years of dedication to master.

[The voice is new on the network, and there's tiny hint of laughter in it, although not unkind.]

Some lessons are better learned with another pair of eyes to tell you what you are missing in your attempts. That I can offer you.

I'd appreciate that, honestly. I have... very little idea of what I'm doing, and the fact that my bow isn't exactly flexible doesn't help. I probably should have started with a normal one.

[And that definitely is a laugh, then a pause, then a chuckle.] Talking with our thoughts is much more lively than I remember.

But, of course, a specialized bow will be more difficult to master. I have a basic hunting bow with me; I can lend you that for your practice today. Where are you?
helborn: (yeah okay you wanna go?)

I'm in my room. It's... hard to really give directions, with liminal space like this, but the door's open. It looks like a mead hall - a large space with low tables and a wooden floor. There's a training area at the far end, which should be visible from the door.

And who will I be looking for?

Right, right. My name's Casper. I'm... uh. Not super tall, about average height... I've got dark blond hair and I'm wearing a blue hooded jacket.

I am Bayek. I will be wearing a white hood, and I have not seen anyone else here that keeps two bows.

We will find you shortly.

[He doesn't elaborate on the 'we' there, however.]
