Sorry I haven't updated in a while. But thank you for the advice people. Climbinspy you are awesome I will see you on Tuesday;)
As Whitteny walked toward the small Ranger, she practiced moving silently according to the wind and other useful elements. When Whitteny finally reached the doorstep of the cabin she was exhausted it was a long walk from the castle to Gilan's cabin. Breathing heavily she finally knocked on the door and the Ranger took forever to answer it.
" Hey, why are you breathing so heavily"
Whitteny replied with a rude, "Why do you think I am."
"Well," Gilan said,"As my apprentice you need to be fit and active, and did I mention apprentices do housework"
"The...housework."
"Yes the housework now get to it."
Whitteny stared at the Ranger like he was speaking some other language. But she obeyed and clean the dirty dishes, beat the rug, and many other difficult tasks. Gilan just keep making up other tasks that seemed bizarre to Whitteny.
Finally Gilan said,"Are you ready to practice your archery."
"Yes, I have been waiting forever for that."
So they walked outside, near the back of the tiny cabin. Gilan let Whitteny shoot the first couple of arrows, then stopped her because he was amazed. Whitteny hit the center of the bullseye directly on every time. Gilan didn't believe her when she said she has never touched a bow in her life.
Wow, Gilan thought, she's a natural almost as good already as Will or Halt.
Gilan keep that to himself though. Whitteny was already cocky enough without his compliments.
Instead Gilan replied with a,"Maybe with a little more work you can achieve I never touched a bow in my life level."
Whitteny said nothing back to him except when Gilan asked if she wanted to move on with knives and she replied with a short ok. After one throw she almost killed Gilan, the knife missed his faced about a centimeter. Gilan quickly showed her the correct mechanics, and let her throw a couple more before moving to geography. She excelled in geography as well as archery. Finally it was dinnertime and lucky for Gilan, Whitteny was an excellent cook. So they ate their delicious dinner and enjoyed a cup of steaming coffee. After dinner Gilan showed Whitteny to her room and let Whitteny put her few belongings into her room which included her violin. Then Gilan let her sleep in peace. Whitteny had trouble sleeping from today's events but, she thought she was going to like being a Ranger. Then she slowly drifted of in a deep sleep.
