Sylvie follows Taka out of the inn, where they find an appropriate space in the field for training. She positions herself across from Taka.

"Before we begin, I would like to tell you that I do not believe in the use of violence and bloodshed. You know as well as I, many of our problems can be solved with words and with psychic ability. But I also know the harsh realities of the world. There are powerful malevolent forces that sometimes require the use of the sword. As you hone and increase your strength, I can only trust that you will use it for the greater good. To defend yourself, you friends, and this place we call a home from the evil that resides around us."

She takes a defensive stance, slightly bending her knees, one foot ahead of the other, both arms in front of her.

"The art of the grapple is a great way to subdue someone without causing them harm. First, try to copy the position I'm in."

"Right; for things like pulling your friends away from the wisps."
Taka sets her shuriken down a couple of meters away on the ground. She turns back to Sylvie and mimics her pose.

"The first key to a more powerful grapple is a strong stance. It keeps you steady on your feet, making it harder for your target to knock you over and escape. I'm going to try knocking you over. Try to keep your feet planted and stay balanced"

Sylvie grabs Taka by her arms and tries to waver her from the stance.

"Right."

Taka resists Sylvie's efforts but ultimately loses her footing and stumbles to catch herself.

Sylvie chuckles a little

"Let try again! This time, space your feet out a little more"

She grabs her again

Taka nods.

This time she manages to stay put.

"Okay."

Taka approaches Sylvie and grabs her arms and tries to wave her like she had done to her earlier. This doesn't even make her budge from her stance so instead Taka just steps with her full bodyweight into Sylvie and basically tackles her.

Sylvie picks herself up off the ground and begins to dust herself off

"needs a little...polishing...but you're getting the idea. Lets keep practicing."

The two practice stances and grappling maneuvers for a while. Taka is eventually strong enough that they reach a stalemate, unable to move one another.

"Fantastic! Keep practicing your footwork and the maneuvers I've showed you, and you should have the hang of it in no time!"

((Signing off on grapple one for Taka Kuromori))
