Eating Shrimp For Breakfast

Starling had been told of the change, and he was rather late getting to it. When he had come home he had asked Bass if he could participate in the fight training as well as the healer training, and was told his first opponent was Zell. He hoped this time would go so much better than the time with Tinaro, but he had been practicing. He knew his stance, he was a tad more coordinated, and if he worked on it he could get better...right? Perhaps he wasn't as...adept in fighting as healing, and it didn't come as easily. But if he just practiced and trained he could get better...right? So today, when he had heard the call, he had raced to his store and grabbed the pre-built bundle of herbs and trotted towards the call. It was that little detour that caused him to take his time, to be late, but he needed to be ready to treat his and his opponents wounds. He trotted towards the boy that he had never seen before and curiousity filled him. He wondered...was this like Lillianna, did this boy just show up when Starling had left, or was the young Destruction just very...clueless. Stopping a good distance away he pawed at the earth and dropped his herbs where he hoped they'd be safe before trotting towards the boy. He dipped his head then, a small smile on his face. "H-hello," He said in his gentle voice, stopping about 8 feet from the boy. "M-my name is Starling. I...g-guess we'll be f-fighting today." He said with a grin, shifting his feet to stand at a shoulder width apart.
