Beachside training

After he had finished up with his gardening for the day, Solaire headed down toward the beach with Dovleac in tow. He had learned very quickly how much the capybara loved the water and he didn't know if that same rule applied to ocean water or not, but he figured it was worth a shot! As they reached the sands he noticed his older brother at one end of the shore line, making big swinging motions with his sword. "Woooow..." he said softly, watching Thorn train for a minute. He, of course, knew that his parents and many of his older siblings had some of the Carpathian steel weapons and it wasn't his first time seeing Thorn with his sword, but he had never really realized just how big his sword was! It was definitely bigger than their father's at the very least and way bigger than their mother's dagger.

Dovleac was a pretty independent guy anyway so the capybara quickly separated off on his own to stand in the waves as they washed up on the shore so Solaire walked over to where Thorn was making partial swings with his sword and pausing over and over. "Hey, Thorn!" he greeted with a grin, looking at his brother curiously. "What're you up to?" He knew he wasn't quite old enough to get a weapon of his own yet, but he would be soon and he very much hoped he got one as cool as Thorn's!
