[Marqi 25th or 26th - back note (if possible, please, since notes about arranging practice times for skills)]

After listening to K'leyra's explanation about the necklace and the problems of fighting on a moving ship for landlubbers,  Raddok thanks her for the use of the necklace & triple-checks that he pronounces "Understand" in Marentian correctly (and her name), before placing it over his head for the day. He also agrees out loud about her assessment of fighting skills on  a rocking deck, and asks if she could please have him trained first in Seamanship, so that he can be more effective for both their sea journey & for weapons skills practice later. [OOC - I'll let the GM determine ELs of these things, altho I'll keep a record.]

[Marqi 27th]
Raddok is intrigued by Arawn's explanation of the spell Battle Mind during dinner & silently wonders to himself if any experience he might gain under such a spell might just stick with him. It seems worth the effort to him, even if not so, for the moment at least, & knowing he would be glad for a spurt to his reflexes, he volunteers to Arawn that he's willing to become part of such a team if one is formed, and if Arawn has plenty of volunteers, to take his turn among the others. Raddok adds that if he finds it too uncomfortable, he promises to let Arawn know. He also tells Arawn that he needs to earn to swim, and would be glad of his assistance, at Arawn's convenience.

SKILLS PRACTICE: Raddok will spend the first two weeks on board ship for his skills practice in learning Seamanship from K'leyra full-time (8 hours/day), then both will evaluate his skill level & determine if he can start weapons practice yet. In addition, he will start to learn swimming from Arawn at whatever intervals the elf deems it safe (hours to be determined by Arawn & GM). Since they will apparently be in port at the time, it hopefully won't cut into his seamanship training.

He silently hopes that fresh vegetables, meat and cheese will be among the new foodstuffs, but says nothing. He feels he's butted in enough about things he doesn't know much about.
