"Oh I doubt he was garbage."

"THEY, Fromanzio, there was a group of them. it was nothing more then a group of thieves thinking they could make some quick coin. not every thing in the world revolves around your group of degenerates" she said "though, the thought some one hired them had crossed my mind more then once"

"had we picked you up after killing your parents.
Rias laughed at this "i was there when my parents died Fromanzio, we where coming back from visiting friends when it happened. so if they really where you people, they should have taken me as you claimed, or killed me. your whole agreement is completely shot." she said laughing at him.

she then turned her attention to William, still eager to get away from the subject "no, no formal training, just what i figured out on my own from dealing with the bandits on the road, so real lessons would be very much appreciated." she said "course, i 'cheated' a lot against the bandits, I'd use my power to form the weapons, so i switched a lot to throw them off"

sure we can move along, this'll probably end up in an argument between Rias and Frofro anyway :p

"no, no formal training,....so i switched a lot to throw them off" William smiled he was happy to hear that she had used an sword before. "Well it is good that you have used an sword before, I will just test how good you are with an sword with an practice fight. I am sure to make an practice sword out of wood for the practice fight. So what kind of sword do you have? An long sword? a shorts word?" William hoped to prevent Fromanzio from doing something stupid by making sure Rias wouls stay far away from him.

"So what kind of sword do you have?"
"a Long Sword" she said "you be using the shield to? or just the sword?"

"a Long Sword. You be using the shield to? or just the sword?" "I will just be using the sword. Since you are not training to use the shield, there is no need for me to use the shield. I have to warn you though I am just as good with swords and shields as I am with 2 swords or 1 sword." He smiled at her happy that he was slowly leading her away from Fromanzio.

After travelling another 12 hours, the group was exhausted and it was getting dark, though the group could see a elderly buvor had already set up camp and was cooking soemthing. The bovur noticed the group and shouted over 'ANY OF YOU UP FOR SOME STEW!?'.

"its been a while, how have you been?"

'I have been existing' The bovur said while handing Rias a bowl of stew 'Wait, havewe met before, you must excuse me, I don't remember people well. My noggins never been right, or I forgot what made it go wrong.' The bovur already started placing out bowls of stew around the camp fire for the group and extremely quickly for a man of his age 'So what bring you all to the road, adventure, a destination, or just the journey. Thought don't feel like you need to answer that question, I personally think I am either on the road to remember something or forget something, can't remember' At this point the bovur had sat down and started eating his stew.

William was disturbed by how easily Rias joined the Bovur but he was too tired to argue right now. He signaled the others that they would be staying here for the night. He sighed as he joined Rias and the Bovur around the fire, after making sure that his pony began grazing nearby. William grabbed some of his bread and he started eating it, ignoring the stew. He wasn't about to eat the food of an Bovur if he didn't even know him. He grabbed an stick and tried to shape it like an wooden swords, by using his new found very sharp tooth sword. "So Rias you know this friendly Bovur?"

Rias smiled at the Bovur as she listened to him and shoveled a spoon full of stew into her mouth. "i know, we had that conversation before" she said to him after swallowing "yes" she said to William "we've met several times over the course of my journey, his memory is a bit iffy, but he's good people all 'round" she said shoving another spoon full into her mouth "he's also a kick ass cook" she said "i swear, people that live on the road tend to be better then the people that cook for a living" she said offhandedly.

"anyway, my oown personal journey" Rias said redirecting to the Bovur "has been rudely interrupted by the sudden need 'to be some where', which tends to screw up any good 'aimless wandering in search of ones self'" she said in a mix of jest and annoyance

'well any journey that lets you discover something new is a journey where you discover something about yourself. I mean we are just the results of the events that are our lives, personally I like forgetting some of those events, means every person I meet gets a second chance to introduce themselves. I am guessing everyone in this group probably has done one or two thinks that may have made people think of less of them, imagine if you had a second chance to introduce yourself to those people.' The buvor looked at the group 'Anyone else up for sharing their reasons to travel or are you all travelling for the same reason of "having" to go somewhere.'

Fromanzio was skeptical of the creature in front of him, but once he saw that Rias was not dead, he shrugged and accepted the free meal. He was never a picky eater and when he saw that the food was indeed not poison, he began eating in his normal fashion.

'well any journey that lets you discover something new is a journey where you discover something about yourself. I mean we are just the results of the events that are our lives, personally I like forgetting some of those events, means every person I meet gets a second chance to introduce themselves. I am guessing everyone in this group probably has done one or two thinks that may have made people think of less of them, imagine if you had a second chance to introduce yourself to those people.'

Fromanzio let out a giggle, short but he decided to talk a bit. "Most of the people Fromanzio has done displeasurable things to are unable to receive a second impression, and if they could Fromanzio certainly has no desire to meet them again. Ah, but Fromanzio can allow you to know that he is serving the general populace once more and clearing out additional undesirables. T'is the role of my profession!" He laughed again and then started thinking.

"As for a personal journey, that part would be more complicated. Admittedly Fromanzio does not even remember who he was before...Well anyway, sometimes he remembers it one way, other times he remembers it another way. Though it all ends the same way... Still! He is quite happy with where he is right now. Though he could use more bombs."

"yeah, not really helpful when I'm trying to figure out 'my place' in the scheme of things, or maybe I'm thinking to hard on it, i donno" Rias said as she continued her meal

William listened to Fromanzio telling he couldn't remember much. He was unsure if the assassin was joking or if he was serious about not being able to remember. And Rias not knowing where she belonged made sense. Since she had left her old life behind her, but since it was the only life she knew, it made sense that she didn?t know what to do now. William had his own reason for travelling. He continued eating his bread and after that he grabbed the stew. It seemed quite good and his companions hadn't died yet. The stew tasted quite good and he continued eating it.

"My reason for travelling is quite simple. I have made a promise and I intent to keep that promise." Having said those words William ate some more of the stew. William looked into the fire remembering his promise. Maybe I should just give up.. It was clear she didn't want my help.. William looked a bit sad.

"My reason for travelling is quite simple. I have made a promise and I intent to keep that promise." William said, before looking back into his stew, clearly thinking about a different promise then what he had started with - a promise very obvious to her.

Claire could only stare at the her stew, similarly silent. His oath to her had been particularly distressing - undermining her reason to be here. The resulting duel - and the results of the duel - had further questioned her. Had this conversation been a mere day ago, she would have scoffed at the "journey of discovery", proudly declaring this was a duty to her protect the people regardless of cost.

She had believed wholeheartedly that her devotion to her duty was all the strength she would need; but now such a concept was broken; perhaps forever. Yet, she continued forward without heed, despite her broken faith in her duty, for reasons she could not understand. She wondered if it was her pride that pushed her forward - unwilling to let go of her ways of thought - or some other, alien desire she could not comprehend. Either way, it was a 'journey of discovery' in the most literal sense, and far beyond her reasoning.

She remained silent; as close as an affirmation to their fellow traveler's statement as her would get from her.

Bom nodded in appreciation at the old Buvor, and slurped away at the stew.

"I am guessing everyone in this group probably has done one or two thinks that may have made people think of less of them, imagine if you had a second chance to introduce yourself to those people."

Bom stopped slurping for a moment. He thought about the last few days. How he, such a refined fellow, had been wounded and brought low. He then remembered the humble Rias, revealing herself to have noble blood. Where was Bom's real place?

He delicately wiped the stew from his face.

"I may not be the gentleman I think I am," he said slowly, as much to himself as the others, "but supposing I become one by this journey's end?"

The familiar ambitions of daring-do and celebrity flooded his brain.

"What I want is a real title! Hmmm, to be Sir Bom..."

He trailed off, lost in a fantasy of his own.

"My reason for travelling is quite simple. I have made a promise and I intent to keep that promise," said William.

Promise to whom? Bom wondered. William had been very secretive recently, and Bom spent many hours trying to figure out what exactly was going on - the process had yielded no plausible solution. He'd just have to ask William about it later.

Rias finished her bowl "thank you, it was very good" she said to the Buvor before turning to her pack and setting up her tent while she waited for William to finish his meal and making wooden swords for sparring

'It's strange you'd think a group of people travelling together would be more open about their reasons for travelling or have a common goal.' The buvor looked around at the number of people just starring at their stew 'well I hate to feel like this conversation may have put anyone in a foul mood, does anyone have any good stories to tell?'

William finished his meal "Thank you for the stew it was very good." William had quite some stories to tell, but then again he didn't want to keep Rias waiting. He finished the second wooden sword, they both looked better then he had expected. William stood up and walked over to Rias. "Are you ready for your first lesson Rias?" He asked her while he turned one of the swords around and held the handle towards her so she could grab it.

"Oh Fromanzio has plenty of stories! Would the kind host like him to tell ones about assassinating magi in the middle of the market square? Oh! Fromanzio also has great stories about blowing things up! Great fun! Fromanzio could also relay the story about how he eh...umm...no. No, blowing things up and stabbing things seem to be his only stories. Good stories though! Unless you like jokes! Fromanzio has plenty of those too!"
