The past week for Ryteb was not spent in any form on relaxation, but filled with constant training; both physically and mentally. Finding his powers and psyche lacking against Retsam, he had decided to restart his training at the basics. Inside his room, he practices the five basic movements of elemental magic over and over, until his body could barely move. While he recovered from physical strain, he put himself under intense mental training as he tried to attain a communion with all the elements at the level he was with fire. It was only his body's desire for food that made him venture out into the rest of the ship, though he tried to maintain an appearance of having just been reading and relaxing the entire time. From time to time he did nip over to see how Cheese was doing with her magic, but it was mostly just training. [hr] Ryteb cocked his head, slightly confused. "I have no idea what's going on, but we'll just beat up anyone who gets in our way, rescue the princess, and save the world." he flashed a cheeky smile, that was beginning to become his trademark. It would probably end up that way anyhow, so why pretend otherwise.
