Go to the courtyard to train

You decide that you need to do some training to keep yourself in top condition. Pulling on your trousers and the Belt of Dwarven-kind, you walk over to your weapons rack and take a moment to decide which you want to train with. Eventually you decide to take the Bloodaxe with you.

Looking around as you walk dowstairs, you can’t see any sign that anyone else has woken up yet. The table is bare and there are no sounds coming from the kitchen. You continue on and exit through the large wooden doors in the entrance hall. The early morning sun warms you as you exit and casts a golden glow on everything around you.

“You’re up early today. Is there something you need?” Came a female voice from the keep wall above you. Looking up, you can see your night guard, Shayne, peering over the edge at you. Her neck-length red hair appearing ablaze whenever it catches the light as it waves in the breeze.

“No need to worry. Just need to hit some stuff!” You call back before moving over to where the training dummies and large logs are kept. You begin setting up a few of them when you notice Shayne climbing down from the wall. The leather trousers she chose to wear today accentuate her shapely ass everytime she steps down a rung on the ladder and you can’t help but stare at her until she reaches the ground, at which point you hurriedly try to turn and look busy.

“My shift is almost over anyway, so would you mind if I joined you?” She asked, leaning her crossbow against the wall and unsheathing her sword.
