EhrkZhan laughed and grabbed Arthas's sword arm after moving his head and aimed his blade at his gut. the tip glinted black as the blade was about to meet flesh it hadn't met in a year

Arthas grappled ErkZhan, ripping away the obsidian blade as if taking it from a child, and then pulled a swift back kick which hit ErkZhan directly in the chest. He held the sword with a certain air of familiarity. then threw it and it stuck into the tree in which The Fang was already stuck. "Good move, however you need to learn when people are trying to goad you into a trap. Now, I stand in the way of your weapons, what are you going to do?" he asked while bringing Frostmourne down in a wide arch and holding it at his side.

EhrkZhan grabbed Arthas's sword and kicked him in the side before his sword got back to his side. he yanked at the same time trying to get the sword away from Arthas

Arthas laughed. A deep throaty, happy laugh. "You'll never get your weapons out of that tree while trying to take mine." he said while easily yanking his blade from Erkzhan's grasp. "You can try it without though. Tell you what, when you manage to get your weapons from this ancient oak we can resume our duel, but for now it is time to learn what you know of reading and writing, now quit trying to pull your weapons and sit down." he stated while rebuckling his armor and sitting on a log that lay next to the house Ember had given him.

EhrkZhan's eyes filled with rage at some one who did this to him. his fist shook. both swords shook where they were being held. one slipped free and shot back into his hand

"I already told you, you need to come sit down now, letting your rage boil over is not the best example of convincing me to let you see the eggs, now calm down and sit. Or shall I have Muradin restrain you?" he said with a tone of command.

he slambed his sword into the ground and sat. anger and rage was flashing through his eyes but he didn't attack. he wasn't a fool. he knew when he was beaten. he hadn't been beaten in years. he was use to winning. Defeat felt like he lost part of himself

Muradin: "You shouldn't feel bad about being beaten by Arthas, he by himself without my help has killed Dragons on his own, and by the time we are done with you, so to shall you be able to." he said in a very nice tone. Arthas: "It's true, you have the potential to be THE most powerful human Rider I have ever seen, when you are trained you will easily be able to defeat even opponents who seem ten times greater than you. Now back to what I was trying to get at, what do you know of knowledge, have you been trained in the arcane arts or are you illiterate?" he asked with extreme interest.

"if by you mean illiterate by reading books then yes. arcane i have no idea what you mean unless you ment magic. and in that case no" his voice held hate but also respcet

"So, you cannot read and you have not been trained in the use of magic? That leaves me to question, how did you learn to use the magic that you have shown before? Did you take it from the field or did it just appear one day? Muradin: "Seems as if we have to teach him how to read and write. Shouldn't be too difficult if he will just open his mind and let the knowledge flow in."

his eyes flicked to Muradin. he almost let out a nasty insult slip but held his tounge. "i don't know what your talking about. i've always had those abilities since i was born."

"Ah, then you are a natural mage and I will not have to teach you anything. You can make things happen by just imagining them yes? What a wonderful talent. He means no disrespect, but you have closed your mind, if you would like to read and write all you have to do is let me pour the knowledge into your mind through my memories. Should be easy enough considering your powerful magic abilities. As for the matter of teaching you how to fight...that will be much more tricky because you are so used to Ring fighting. It will be hard to unlearn what you have already but, if you would like I can make you almost a great a swordsman as I, and give you the strength you need to do it. Would you like that?"

"i can only do the two skills in 'magic' that i just did. training would be nice but i don't require another's strength to get stronger. i can do that of my own strength." his eyes flashed with more rage at what he took as an insult of who he was raised

"So, you would like lessons in magic. You have your own strength, I did not mean GIVE you mine, I meant to train yours so that it matches mine. And Ring fighting is much a good thing, though not entirely practical when it comes to fighting an opponent who is better trained then you are." he looked at ErkZhan with a funny expression. "Did you not know that I can sense every emotion and feeling that you have? If you want to express your rage or anger or fury or whatever you will then at least do it out loud, That way I don't have to feel as if I'm being disrespectful. Besides, Ring fighting is much different than fighting in a true duel, as you have seen today." he said smiling and stacking wood in a ring to start a fire.

his hand twitched wanting his sword in his hand "i apologies for making your feel like you were being disrespectful. i haven't lost in years and i'm still getting over it. if it wouldn't be a problem then i'd like to train as your student" he had his eyes closed trying to clam himself even though he was failing
