Toga

Above the ocean, the sun presided with unwavering constancy, a luminous beacon heralding the day's untold stories and awaiting adventures.

On the fringe of the shore, Toga dedicated himself to the art of refinement, his demeanor a study in serene focus. Cast aside, his usual attire of a dark cloak and white shirt lay forgotten on the sand, revealing a physique sculpted by discipline and the caress of countless suns. His trousers rolled up to stave off the embrace of the sand, and his feet, bare, embraced the warmth of the grains beneath him.

With his katana cradled in both hands, Toga assumed a posture of purposeful intent. The blade, poised steadily above him, caught the morning light, transforming into a mirror reflecting the brilliance of the day. He executed a series of strikes with precision and strength, each movement fluid and deliberate, the sword slicing through the air to return to its starting point in a seamless cycle. This ritual of fundamental exercises, the cornerstone of his practice, laid the groundwork for mastery, each repetition a step on the path to perfection.

"247…248…" The count ascended, each number marking the rhythm of his blade's dance, a silent testament to the dedication that defined him. In this moment, Toga was not just a aspiring swordsman but a disciple of discipline, his every motion a homage to the craft that shaped his destiny.

Kahu Beach was to be his training ground today, a constant reminder of how Luluhawa Beach had aided his growth over the past few months. When he wasn’t fulfilling his duties as a Rune Knight or honing his magic as a dragon slayer and world traveler, Toga spent his time here on this sunlit island, cultivating new experiences for himself and others. He had met many people: Lumikki, Yuurei, the village chief, and the chief’s daughter, among others. Now, he sought to repay their kindness by becoming stronger each time he set foot on these sandy shores.

For the moment, Toga was alone, training while Zangetsu rested by his side and he swung his fiery katana in controlled arcs. His nose twitched mid-swing. “Huh?” he muttered, sniffing the air with heightened alertness as a new scent drifted into his vicinity. Toga never questioned his senses and immediately recognized the arrival of a stranger. This scent was different, foreign, but undeniably powerful.

A spark of excitement lit his eyes as he gripped the hilt of his katana a little tighter. The thrill of an impending challenge pulsed through him. He didn't know who this mysterious visitor was, but he welcomed the encounter, eager to prove himself on these familiar shores once more. With a grin, Toga turned his gaze toward the beach's entrance, ready to meet his new potential adversary head-on.

Brone Heavyaxe
A beautiful day as it usually is on the island. The scent of the sea with the sound of the waves are normally relaxing to visitors... but not to the dwarf, for he disliked large bodies of water and the scent of the sea, but he needed to make this trek because of the information his ravens had told him; a Rune Knight with promising skill had just reached the rank of S. Unaware of any worthy ceremony made for the knight the dwarf might have missed, but cared not, for a true ceremony for a warrior is a test of their martial skill.

"But why care so much about this knight?" Huginn asked as he perched upon the shoulder of Brone Heavyaxe who sat in the rowboat, rowing the oars towards the small island called Kahu Rock just off the coast of Luluhawa Island.

"Rune Knights are the protectors of the nation" Brone said with the hint of pride and determination in his voice, "When hel raises and fires burn, mercenaries won't come without coin, but the knights are the first to take up their weapons for their land" the dwarf exhaled a deep loud breath through his nose, already anticipating the strength of his opponent.

"Take great care, Brone, he is no mere mortal, he has what some of us seers call a 'divine spark'" Muninn landed upon Brone's other shoulder as the dwarf continued to row. Unlike his brother, Muninn showed more concern for his ally. Upon laying an eye on the Rune Knight, he learned all that he needed to off the warrior.

"No mere mortal, good, remember my goal, I want to make sure Fiore has strong defenders" For a moment Brone thought about his battles with the terrors of other worldly creature and the rumors of terrible Dark Guilds and warlocks that hide within the shadows of Fiore. "Don't give me a whole essay on 'em, just tell me what weapons he favors and two of his strengths" The dwarf didn't enjoy longwinded explanations on anything, such lectures tend to put him to sleep and he lack patience for such things; but he needed to know of any dangerous details. Before in his earlier days of combat, he would rush in without thinking things through, desiring to learn of his opponent in battle, but that tactic nearly cost his life several times, now understanding that some beings, especially mages, have life-threatening magicks, and Muninn knew of his concern.

"He is a swordsman, a user of fire magic, but not mere novice fire... he is known as an Inferno Dragon Slayer" This excited the dwarf, he has heard of Dragon Slayers, but never had a chance to meet one, let alone test their prowess in combat, his blood raced as he began to pick up pace and soon reaching the shore of Kahu Rock, "Lastly... be careful of his hand, he has the ability to pull things, including people, into other dimensions" This worried the dwarf, for what he called 'Here-and-there' magic, they were always complicated to him, no matter how many times his friend Kaito would try to explain to him dimensional magic, the dwarf would get frustrated, never fully understanding it.

"Don't get touched by his hand, easy enough" Brone said nonchalantly as he stepped out of the rowboat and walked up the sandy path. The ravens were slightly annoyed that the dwarf didn't take this fight more seriously when it comes to caution, but the dwarf was indeed taking it seriously in a different sense; he was determined to make sure that this swordsman had the skills worthy enough to protect the land.

He eventually spotted the pink haired young man; by the look on his face, he seemed excited and expecting the dwarf, to which Brone smiled back, glad that he was being welcomed, "Pleasure te meet, ya, call me Brone Heavyaxe, the Shield of Paradise Dawn!" He called to the young man as he continued to take his time and walk up the slope off the beach. To onlookers, the dwarf resembled his people surely, but what made him stand out was the ash-gray skin. Already heavily armored with his blue breastplate and his horned helm beneath his right arm, he shown a great smile, "I desire a battle with the powerful Rune Knight called Toga!"

Not wasting time, the dwarf slipped on his helmet upon his head, now hiding away his white hair and gray face. His heart beating, excited to finally meet blades with a dragon slayer.
