Dialogue
Ywain
So you were able to discern one end of the spear from the other. Good.
You are doubtless eager to put your new weapon to the test─which is well, for I too have a test in mind, or rather...a trial.
In order to develop an affinity with your weapon and learn to gauge such things as distance, you are to go forth and pit yourself against the creatures that roam just outside the city.
The squirrels, ladybugs, and funguars should provide you with a suitable challenge.
Put down, let us say, three of each, and then report back to me.
So you are back. I trust you have learned something of the essence of our art.
A lancer learns best when he is doing, each thrust making him stronger. Such things as strategy and technique will come in time. And never forget courage─without it, you cannot hope to realize your potential.
...Your look betrays no hint of doubt. That is well. It is clear you see the truth in my words.
That will be all for the present. Now, take up your weapon, sally forth, and cut a path for yourself.
When next we meet, I hope to see you stronger for your time out in the world.
Note
- This quest isn't available for players who started the game as a lancer.
