"I've got my work cut out for me, I see", Illyana smiles. "The dagger seems
about right for your handsize..." She takes Astrans hand and contemplates
it for a while. "And it is about the right weight and style for hand-held
fighting. Would not be balanced for throwing, but then, you probably have
better spells than daggers." A big smile.
"You need to work on a few things, though. What is your intention with your
knife? To fight or just to look intimidating, hoping to keep the weak at
heart at bay?" She still holds his hand, as if she has forgotten to give it
back. "And you need to be able to draw freely. When your knife is on that
side, you'll be drawing slower and more akwardly. If you move it to the
other hip, you'll be able to reach over and draw it fast. As it is, you are
just telling any would-be attacker that you don't know how to fight. That
could be dangerous."

Astran smiles shyly and fumbles to pull the dagger from its sheath.
He's right handed, but he's got the dagger on his right hip, possibly
because he thinks he looks more cool with his hand resting on the hilt.
Unfortunately, as any fighter would know, this means that he cannot
draw it either quickly or gracefully..
