Short chapter here with the group learning how to use their new weapons and wearing their new armors.


20th of Rain's Hand 4ERA 211

Early the next day had Loki loudly waking everyone up, "RISE & SHINE! We have a long day of training today!" With them all heading downstairs not pleased by the rude awakening, only to find Loki wearing her Ebony Mail Armor and other ebony based armor, just without the helmet on.

"What time is it?" Tony asked, while trying not to yawn.

"Seven-thirty. I will make a quick breakfast for all of you while you all get changed into your armor and equip your weapons." Followed by Loki heading to her kitchen to begin cooking while the group of ten got changed and grabbed their weapons.

Once that was all done, they all sat by the tables in the dining area where Loki was already pouring a another type of stew of sort that smelled very tasty into bowls for all of them.

"What is that stuff?" Fandral asked, "It smells really good." Complete with his mouth starting to water. "And is this the same meat from the stew that was made yesterday?"

"It's venison stew and no its not the same, with the meat yesterday being from that of a bear. Now while your all eating, I'll be grabbing some weapons myself."

"What type of weapons?" Thor asked, concerned for his sister's safty since he never liked the idea of her having any weapon bigger than a small throwing knife.

"Just my Nightingale Bow, my two Deadric Swords with one for soul trapping and the other for absorbing health, my Glass Bow of the Stag, my Deadric Greatsword that also absorbs health and soul traps, and plenty of Deadric Arrows & Ebony Arrows. Nothing too fancy." Loki said calmly, as if there was no issue with her using weapons.

But before Thor was about to say something that would make Loki furious and no doubt 'forbid her' from using any type of weapons, Hogan spoke up. "What Fort are we going to train at?"

"The Fort I choose is Fort Amol, which is located here in Eastmarch. As for anyone bothering us, don't worry about it. With the location of the fort, bandits or anyone else never bother trying to take it." Once she was done talking, Loki took her greatsword and gave it a few swings before equiping it to her back (though Thor didn't look happy seeing her with that greatsword).

Making sure that everyone was wearing their armor and had their weapons, Loki then opened the door with the group following her on the path to Fort Amol.

~~~~~~~~~Later at Fort Amol

After a couple of hours walking, they made it to the fort where there was a large area for training with wooden training dummies, archery targets, and a blacksmithing area. Loki then spoke up, "Alright, I'll let you all train with the wooden dummies, and if you want a living target, speak to me and I will conjure up a target."

It didn't take long for Clint to be at the archery targets to get to know his new bow, while the rest used the wooden dummies, with Thor, the Warriors 3, Sif, and Steve being the only ones with combat training while the rest were just starting. As for Loki, she too was at one of the wooden dummies and was using her two swords this time instead of her greatsword.

After a while, Volstag went to Loki for a challenge. "Is there a spell to conjure a troll?"

"Would you like a regular troll or a frost troll?"

"Regular." Followed by Loki's hands turning purple and when the spell was casted, a brown troll formed with Volstag taking it down with some difficulty since the trolls he faced were never this tough.

After Volstag was done, Clint and Natasha both went next and fought against a Restless Dragur that seemed to take forever for the two to take down, followed by Steve and Bruce against a Sprigon that had them wishing they went for something else, then followed by Thor, Fandral, Hogan, and Sif, who all went against a giant that nearly smashed them. When that was done, the entire group asked for something even more challenging, which resulted in Loki conjuring a Dragon Priest that had everyone in the group failing with Loki saving them by taking down the Dragon Priest herself.

The look she gave them was that of a parent scolding her children, "All of you were being reckless in thinking you could take down a Dragon Priest when the different challenges I gave you all of you struggling to hold your own." She turned to the five Asgardians, "You five are the ones that think fighting creatures in Skyrim is like fighting creatures in Asgard. Well that is not the case. Creatures and even the wildlife here are far more dangerous than the ones back in Asgard." Sighing, "Grab your weapons. Because I'm taking all of you to the College of Winterhold where they can teach you some basic magic and teach you how to use your restoration skills better."

The group grabbed their fallen weapons, Loki used her magic that changed her armor to that of her Arch-Mage robes and walked through the portal with the group following her through the portal.


And our next location is the College of Winterhold.
