The day was warm as she awoke early as the norm she made her way out of the room still in her sleeping cloths wraps around her chest and some spandex shorts. Today was maintenance day for her sword. every 2 weeks she took a day to just to clean the mechanisms and keep the blade in a sharp pristine condition. "oh what a morning... Cant believe i'm still alive i feel so stiff from that fight an my horn still hurts...." It was proving to be a nusince her horn as it seemed this time rather then having just broke it fractured in places and would take a good amount of time to heal up. Well on her way to the Workshop of the school she picked up her sword and head to the training hall. While he she did some ealry morning practice. mostly it was dodging and rolling to the side.
For over a hour merlynn practiced swinging the sword to fling her self back and avoid attack from a basic dummy target. She was wishing she was home becuase the fact she still had clothes on training bothered her. but because she was on school ground she had to be proper...kinda. soon her training came to using it as a real sword she struck back at the dummy with blows that slashed at the ground as she brought it back up and around in a figure eight manner training seeing the balance in her sword was still up to snuff as well as keeping her self in shape while swinging such a weapon. Her swings even for such a large weapon never lacked speed one would think you loose. She was having fun none the less, After all she was thinking about what kinda of dish to make for Angelina. At one point merlynn stated to get a little more athletic, she started to bring the hilt more to her core hold the blade out parallel with the ground and jumps backwards keeping the blade at a balanced point that she could work with. landing on her feet she slipped and landed on her ass and groan as she laid on her back looking up.
Getting up she grasped where sword coking up on the hilt and took off like ballerina angling the sword enough just to skim the floor and left three large rings in the floor as she had move forward for her attack her sword was held in one hand now straight out angling to the sky while her body was in a half turn. the dummy before her was gashed three times each was just above the other. she looked at the dummy and brought sword large sword to a rest on her shoulder. "i guess its time to stop floundering around.. i need to get you polished, sharpened and oil your gears..." merlynn sighed as she left the training dummy but as she left it fell apart, her final slash had cut it in half but she wouldn't know.
