*he was here, finally managing to find the place that the guards trained. He wore his usual, leather leggings and breechcloth, but other then this his chest and upper body was bare. He had traided in his wooden spear, for another with a bone tip. Still not the most advanced weapon, but he seemed to prefer non-metal, natural substances for...just about everything actually. His handaxes remained on his belt as he merely watched for the moment, spear in hand. He of course wanted to see just what the training program entailed before getting some training of his own done.
But he was not going to take over the leadership, there was no reason for that. They would train in their way, and he would train in his. But in oder to do that, a few training tools must first be made. he would have to write down a list of materials, though they were easy enough to get should one deside to brave the jungles of his home

*he of course also needed a place to train. Not many places to set up, and even less likely they would have facilities for one of his size. He moved along the training grounds, watching each and all. Though he had not actually offically been given any type of rank or orders within the guard. That being said, he was trying to play nice with the others here. At least until something solid came out of it. Thorn vines, wooden stakes, thin long planks of wood, more traing spears.
That particular method was easy actually, but it might go over well here...a series of thornss were placed in a net-like formation, one took a spear, crawling under the first set, similar to barbed wire, and then ran through the other set...sort of like a high step training net used in many sports (at least of the former human world) Then they would toss the spear though a series of rolling hoops, made out of the pliable long peices of wood, or reed. The point was to throw when the hoops were lined up and have the spear move effortlessly though all of the hoops, striking a straw dummy in one of two places: the chest, or the head, with the head actually being worth more 'points'. It was a childs game, but the men still played from time to time, though thier final target could be as small as a golden coin*

[Inside - Outside the Castle]
is just outside the Castle
Says to ALL
*he eventually exited the training area, and the castle itself for that matter, moving along the paths and merely watching. One could learn a lot by simply observing, and he knew that. He also knew that in order to gain the trust of these people, he must at least appear to be like one of them, which means adhering to thier customs and so on. But he still wished to keep some sembalance of his own identity, and his own people. It was a very careful blend and balence, and he was not sure if he could do such. But he would certainly try.

[Inside - Temple]
in one of the many temples. Depending on the Temple it would be safe to cast magic of the certain type within. Choose the wrong one and well bad things will happen
Says to ALL
*in any case, he moved to one of the temples. Namely, to the Temple of the Goddess of Night. The same Goddess of whom his mother was a Priestess of. He stood there for a moment, head bowed so that his long dreaded hair draped over the sides of his face. He spoke softly, in the jungle dialect, in something akin to a prayer. .. as he asked for the strength to complete his quest. But this Goddess was one of only a select few he trusted, and truly as his Matron Goddess, as he had been born to one of Her Priestesses, and he hoped that the Goddess would look upon his with favor
