Well first, I'd say relax a touch. If you hold yourself so stiff, you're going to snap your arms off at the elbows as soon as you take a swing.

[ She's helping.

And that slow walk around Elodie, circling her a little bit like a shark? Absolutely helping. ]

Your stance is a bit off. You're going to need to adjust that before we move onto anything else. What is it that has you so nervous, first of all?

[voiceboxed]

[ Oh, yes. Definitely... definitely helping. ]

What isn't there to be worried about?! If I don't handle this thing properly, it could cut my hand off! That's the kind of thing you need to be careful with!

It's good to have some healthy caution for your weapon but perhaps not best to be so lovingly imagining the worst case scenario.

[ Her voice is dry, but she doesn't sound chiding. There's a tilted tone to her words though, like she's repeating a lecture she'd been on the receiving end of herself. ]

What you fear should not be the blade itself, but the intent with which you draw it. Don't ever forget: if you draw a blade, you draw it to kill. A weapon like that in your hand is not a threat, it is a statement.

[ She stops pacing and meets Elodie's eyes properly. ]

Are you still sure you want to learn?

[voiceboxed]

Y... Yes.

[ Elodie relaxes her grip, bringing the sword closer to something resembling a position you might hold it in if you were fighting. ]

I've managed all kinds of complicated magic, there's no reason I can't figure out how to use a stupid sword.
