(OoC: A few days? Damn. Time Skip!!!!!)
Wylie passed a bit of beef to Crowley as well before settling comfortably into his horse for a long day's ride.
The day passed very uneventfully and very slowly, with not much more than a rabbit or two on the road. Finally, the sun hit the horizon and began setting.
"How far into the night do we want to be travelling?" he asked to anyone who was listening.
(OoC: And are we training every night or was that just a one-off?)

'Hey you, kid, you can ride with me.' Tobias mounted on and the group picked up their pace.
Zeiss moulded over Wylie's question. He really didn't know how far they could go before the horses needed to stop.

(OoC: I was waiting for answer before I post but looks like Crow is still away and Bunny just isn't around much anymore. Also, Tobias, you can't post totally OoC posts. There has to be some IC element as well.)
Wylie looked around hoping someone might have an answer but clearly everyone was dead from the boring repetitiveness of the journey. He found the silence opressive and attempted to break it again.
"Ok then. Well I think we should keep moving for a few hours at least. I'm bored but not tired and with five of us, there shouldn't be too much on the road that would bother us."
He fell silent before before again speaking up. "So do you guys feel like sparring again tonight?"

OoC: Gak, sorry about that. I kept getting confused by the horses thing... I honestly didn't know we even had horses...
Usha nodded.
"Good idea to spar every night. Need good fighting skills to not get killed, or knocked out in one hit," she looked over at the kid, grinning.

Tobias caught the obvious reference to himself in what she said. He didn't really care what other people thought, but they would never take him seriously if he didn't prove that they had a reason to. "Sure, sparring would be good." He said.

"I think it's a good idea too," said Wylie, ignoring the obvious dig at Tobias, though secretly smiling on the inside. "I also think we should change the fight lineup each night, so you guys don't settle into patterns from fighting the same opponent over and over. Say, Usha and Zeiss first?"
Wylie was happy they wanted to continue sparring. He knew as well as anyone that he really did need training. He could do it well enough, but it took a longer period of time than was really practical on a battlefield. He'd briefly glimpsed some healers back at the Etrurian mages' academy and they were twice as fast as Wylie was.
Night had well and truly fallen now and still the group plodded on. At roughly 3 hours past sunset, they finally stopped at a site that looked good. A warm breeze was blowing, eliminating the need to put on warmer clothes for the night. Wylie got comfortable against a tree and indicated he was ready when the others were.

Zeiss got off his horse and tied it to a tree. 'Do I really have to go first.' he inquered annoyed. He just wated a to lie down and sleep not to mention that this opponent, if perhaps not as strong as she seemed, would certainly not be as easily intimitated as Tobias.

"We could tie to tree and let Usha hit," the giant fighter suggested, smiling. She stretched her limbs, eying Zeiss wearily. Despite her harsh words, she really didn't want to attack him if he wasn't ready. You should never make the magician you were traveling with angry at you. You never knew when you could "accidentally" get his by a "wild" spell.

'Very tempting, but I could also just respectfully admit tht you are the superior combatant and withdraw.' Zeiss hoped that the sentence didn't go too far beyond Usha's vocabulary.

Usha shrugged.
"Whatever you want," she stated. She actually understood the mage's fancy talk, more or less. He didn't want to fight, that much was clear. Well, she honestly didn't want to spar a mage that didn't want to fight. Or a shaman, or whatever Zeiss happened to be...

Wylie watched the conversation go back and forth. He had seen some of Zeiss' abilities and he suspected that Zeiss was in fact more powerful and had other reasons for not wanting to fight.
Anyway, Wylie didn't know what this meant. If they weren't fighting, would Usha fight someone else? Would Zeiss settle for another opponent? He hoped someone would put their hand up volunteer because he needed training as bad as the rest of them.

Tobias sighed. "Well, since you two don't seem to be able to make a decision, I am willing to fight Usha." He actually wanted to fight Usha. she seemed to be the one who doubted his abilities the most, and he wanted to prove that he was stronger than they thought. "Unless you wanted to fight someone else..."

Usha shrugged.
"Usha can knock out scrawny man if he want," she offered, smiling. She got her axe out and readied the weapon.
"You sure you want to fight? You have advantage with sword, but still scrawny," she pointed out. Actually, a quick scrawny guy would probably hurt her a lot. Especially if he stayed far enough away that her massive size wouldn't help her as much as it had with her brawl with Crowley.

(OoC: Rejoice, for I am back!)
Crowley frowned. This little guy was going to fight 'The Hulk'? He must see that. He just hoped that the little guy wouldn't win. That would be quite humiliating. He looked concerned but then shrugged and got out his drinks.
