Airin woke up early in the morning waiting for Damar's arrival at the back of the palace. As they had promised last night they would train behind the palace to become a knight.
In the back of the palace are various property tools to practice such as arrows, swordplay and horse riding.
Airin awaits the arrival of Damar accompanied by faithful ladies following him wherever he goes.
"Where the hell is Damar? He said he wanted to practice early in the morning. But he has not yet revealed his nose" said Airin pacing back and forth waiting for the arrival of Damar as his coach.
Long enough Airin waited for the arrival of Damar there. Until at the end of his Damar was present with breathless breath. Well he ran to the training ground so that made his breath frenzied.
"Oh Damar, where have you been? I've been waiting for you here for a long time" Airin said.
"I'm sorry Airin, I'm late and I woke up late. Yes you know for yourself because some days I did not sleep quietly while we were on the way" Damar said honestly. Because indeed during the trip to the land of Bunian Damar not sleeping at all. He stood guard all day and night to guard the waters when suddenly the Orx came against them.
As a soldier he must always be alert and alert if something dangerous comes attacking suddenly. Moreover, will attack the princess of the kingdom who has been their target.
"Yes also Damar, all this time you do not sleep quietly and also rest with enough of us on the way to this country. We should not start training today let you rest all day to get your strength back up" Airin suggested.
"It doesn't matter what Airin is, I've had enough rest and I've restored my strength. Now I'm ready to train you to be a knight"
"Yes I'm fine. I'm ready to train you. I don't want to disappoint you who are excited to train today" Damar told Airin again to convince him to trust her. Although at this time he still felt tired from traveling a long way and also did not rest enough. But the man did not want to make Airin discouraged because he was tired again at this time.
"Let's start training" Damar said.
"Well then what do we want to practice now?"
"We're going to start with archery practice right now"
"OK" said Airin taking the bow and arrow lying on the table.
"Keep, How to use this bow and arrow" said Airin confused.
"OK, first of all you have to stand up and you have to concentrate. Just take a straight line with the target that is there" said Damar pointing towards the target not far from them standing.
"Next, the next step is to install arrows. What must be considered is the fit or not nock to the string. If it is too tight it may be down to accuracy, which is actually okay for beginners. Well, that's a danger if it's too loose. Imagine if in the middle of the string narik process continues nocknya sag or detach from the string and release release release. Could've run to that guy's arrow." Damar was a little joking.
Hearing Damar's explanation, Airin gave a small laugh.
"Next raise the bow. Things to note, namely the bow retaining arm relaxes, the rope is pulled by three fingers, namely the index finger, middle finger and ring finger. The rope is placed or rather placed on the first finger segments, and the bow pressure against the palm of the bow holder in the middle of point V, the, which is formed by the thumb and index finger (arc retaining arm)"
"Next is pulling a string or string on the bow. The right way by pulling it to touch idung while maintaining the position of the hand that holds the bow or bow straight, the head also does not move, yes. Remember, strings are decetin noses, not noses are nyamperin strings"
