When he did, Jace approached, “I have been following you all day, just like your father did to me when he first trained me.” Kilen was now struck with shock. Jace was his father’s student and now was going to pass on that training to him. It was as close as Kilen would get to being trained by his own father. “I was testing your abilities, self awareness, bravery, subtlety, and a few others.” Jace turned and walked away, waving a hand for Kilen to join him. “It’s not your fault really, your sword gave you away. I only had to ask a few people where the weapon bearer with no rank had gone. Everyone sees the sword and wonders why you don’t have a sword and shield pinned to your shoulders. Once I did that I could have walked the same footsteps you did. You did upset Master Horval a lot though,” Jace laughed as though he had told a joke. “So what do I do to change that? I was told to never take off the sword or leave my rings unguarded,” Kilen said in rebuttal.
