Where is the helm and the hauberk, and the bright hair flowing?
Where is the harp on the harpstring, and the red fire glowing?
Where is the spring and the harvest and the tall corn growing?
They have passed like rain on the mountain, like a wind in the meadow;
The days have gone down in the West behind the hills into shadow.
Who shall gather the smoke of the deadwood burning,
Or behold the flowing years from the Sea returning?

I had just finished making some weird snare that the instructor taught me when he arrived. My competitive streak made me shoot a particularly venomous glare at Grant before I decided to wipe those smug grins off of the Careers' faces. Delibaretly and briskly, I walked over to the weapons area, skillfully dodging anything that came my way. There, I picked up a beautiful ivory bow, and slung the quiver onto my back. The targets were too easy, so I prepared an arrow and waited silently. As usual, the Careers were ignoring me. Percect. One of the boys was fooling around with some kind of chain that had a spiked ball on the end, swinging it above his head. I raise dmy bow, pulled back, and aimed. Swooosh! The very tip of the arrowhead caught the small hole in one of the chains, swiftly dragging the thing completely out of the stunned Career's hands. It impaled itself onto a motionless target thirty yards behind him, me smirking with triumph at them. Oh, I had many other tricks up my sleeve. All they needed to know was my bow skills and that they shouldn't mess with me.

In fact, eh pretended to not even notice, just pretend-focusing on his station. The instructor believed it, so gave Grant a quick quiz. "This plant? This? How about this? Hm... here's a hint: it's used to treat burns. Let's go to the next one, then. This?" Grant managed to get every single one wrong. Plants aren't my thing. He thought to himself. With a shrug, he faced to instructor. "Sorry, I don't think I'm very good with botaninny." The instructor rolled their eyes, correcting Grant that it was 'bottany,' not boaninny. Grant gave a quick laugh and turned around, saying goodbye to the instructor and wishing him the best of luck that there would be better people to train. Without another word, he parted to the camoflouge station. Haha... this'll be fun. The boy thought, picturing him dying either his or someone else's hair pink on accident. Grant didn't of course let the thought on, but instead began copying the others without a word. This is easy, he thought. That was, until the instructor told him he was using the wrong material, and that that one would stain skin or clothes. Looking down at his arm and jeans, that wasn't a good sign. He looked up, laughing. "Oops. There's ways using saltwater to get this out, right?" The instructor shrugged. I'm doing completely horrible. This is working.
