Chapter 4

One day Gilut returned to Derrick for more training and to see
how Derrick thought his training was progressing. Derrick tolds Gilut told of
ancient monks that had traveled around Thera and taught guildmasters ancient
secrets to very seasoned warriors. Derrick told him he would get one
advanced training now and one a little while later. Gilut discussed
each of them in detail with Derrick and they finally decide on the first one.
Gilut had natural dwarven restistance to fighting magi and felt he had sufficient
skill in this area, but he felt he lacked something when fighting his non-magi
enemies. Therefore, he and Derrick decided that like a wave crashing down, Gilut
would learn to strike through his opponents weapon, possibly even disarming them.

A year or so later, Gilut returned to Derrick and discovered it was time for his second
training in the ways of the ancient monks. Gilut decided to his do two things with
his second training. The first thing was obviously to provide himself assistance
when fighting. The second thing was to pay homage to the great battles that
both the villagers and the dwarven race have had. Gilut decided to pay tribute
to the great siege of Uzberd in the year 934. This great siege may have been lost to
many, but Giluts father told him he heard whispers that dwarves sieged the orc den
at Uzberd for 300 days. The dwarf never even left for food, water, or anything. They
continued to fight until victory was there. For Gilut must be like the dwarves at Uzberd
and keep fighting and keep pressing on until victory is his.
