Nonlethal Force said:Tullia smiles at Boarhide's compliment. "Although while you may knock a whole tree over with an arrow from that bow, I no doubt can use mine to seperate its fruit from its branches. Together we make balance."
Tullia replies about the horse guard, "Well, I was not thinking child so much as teenager. One who has a few wits and at least some common sense about them. Ideally it might be someone who is ready to apprentice. I have no doubt I could teach them many things about tracking and you could teach them a warrior's instinct. As they worked for us in caring for our horses they would no doubt learn our skills."
Boarhide laughs again.
"I will gain ALL the fruit when the tree is on the ground!" he laughs.
"As for an apprentice, perhaps. Most of these village boys haven't anymore wits than the horses themselves, and they at least are easier to train. I have concerns about bringing a young man into the woods after us and then leaving him alone. If the right boy came along, perhaps from a farm, where they had some knowledge of the woods, they may survive following us"
