UN: Former Pilot | Open Text

[skyward_eyes]

Having a bit of a problem getting to sleep, and I don't have access to the old methods of dealing with it here. Unless sleep powder is still a thing and people are hiding it.

Anyway, basically what I'm looking for is any remedies or advice people might have for getting to sleep. Or possibly a sparring partner to at least exhaust me to the point of passing out.

Or bedtime stories. There's no books, but bedtime stories are nice, good way to learn about other people's worlds and all that.

That is because most people don't start training until they are older, they have the luxury that they don't have to. I was twelve when I started training for my purpose so no judgement here. I wasn't trained to be a mercenary though, that came later.

[skyward_eyes]

Eight, but didn't get into weapons until 12 and I'm only 19 going on 20 so... Not as much experience.

I wasn't trained to be just a fighter either. I've got other skills. They'll make me better eyes.

[ataashihunter]

Sounds good if you ask me, I was Ben-Hassrath, which means I was a spy, it was my job to notice things. Those kinds of skills?

And we'll find plenty of people here for you to train with, kid.

[skyward_eyes]

Noticing things I shouldn't, getting places I don't belong, taking things that aren't mine. Those kinds of skills. Not exactly as marketable here but some of them have genuine application.

I'm looking forward to it.

[ataashihunter]

That they do. I'll talk to some people and figure out what we can do. It is a good place to start at least.

[skyward_eyes]

Well, at the very least I can walk around things. If that wasn't the worst training to have, but the one they beat into you hardest.

[ataashihunter]

Yeah, I know how that can be. Alright, how about you come with me for the evening patrol tomorrow?

[skyward_eyes]

I'd be happy to. I'll have to remember to bundle up. Where should I meet you?

[ataashihunter]

How about we meet by the fountain? Look for the big guy

[skyward_eyes]

Works for me. Pretty easy to find, I live right by the fountain park. And I've been given an estimate of your height by Altair. I should be able to pick you out of a crowd.
