We do spar with him regularly, and he has explicitly told us that his oath prevents him from showing the style to anyone. He has refused us more than once when asked about rhe style.
And I doubt Corpsemaker is going to want us to know his styles weakness unless we go and pledge to his warband. Which there's like a 0 chance of us doing.

He probably can't bounce defenses but I suspect he could bounce an IAT, yeah. This is conceptual and there's magic there, which he can move.
As noted, Eric has already refused this...he is oathbound to not do it.
I'm not sure I'd go that far. If we successfully dispose of Dorri, I think we kind of need to become hersir, which would probably also involve swearing to Corpsemaker. I'm not happy about that, but I think it might be necessary, and if we're doing that anyway we might as well get a Martial Style out of it.

I mean, fair, but I think that learning a landmark style requires you actually live at and study at the landmark for a time. I don't think we are gonna leave our farm for a year to live in the city and learn their style.
I'd be down to do it, personally. I think it'd be fun and would be good knowledge to have, I think Corpsemaker has not been a bad guy to us for the most part, and I think having family tied to them is potentially useful long term.
But if it takes even 6 months of consistently living there, would we be able to leave our family for that amount of time? Would we be willing even if able?

I'm not at all sure that, name aside, Mirror Waltz is associated with a physical landmark. Not all such styles are. Their touchstones can also be cultural, rather than physical, and include things like 'joining a warband'.

Because I don't really expect you folks to ever learn this in-character, Mirror Waltz' landmark is a massive plane of highly polished silver that the Kyrsvikingar practice before.
So how'd they get it? Was it dragged from some other realm, did they forge it from multiple kings ransoms worth of loot or was it just always there and they just stumbled upon it one day?
- Pronouns

Check. And how often would you need to train at the actual physical thing to learn it? I'm curious. Are we talking a few times, or every day for months? Not necessarily for Mirror Waltz specifically, but just as a general Martial Style question.

That's a good question
As long as it takes for you to ingrain the mirror into your very being. It differs from person to person and there is no concrete length of time.

IIRC, the Kyrsvikingar are 'heirs' of a previous Warband's style, so they presumably found/looted it from that warband's holdings. Where that was, who knows, and who knows where the original Warband got it, but it doesn't sound like they created it themselves.
Interesting. Very interesting. I wonder if someone could use a Rewrite and speed that process up...

This idea of yours shows merit, that much is certain as you zip across the pockmarked training grounds—a field of low-fertility ground that you've long used for training purposes. Once, the field was relatively flat and had a few copses of trees to call its own. Now, however, it's a crater-filled moonscape of land covered in broken piles of splinters and more battle-forged hillocks than the eye can see.
Your lungs burn as you take solitary steps in frozen space. With time stuttering around you, you move where others cannot, but your lungs and body simply refuses to go any further than single steps. No matter how hard you try, your feet take you no further.
It seems, for the time being, you'll only be able to take single steps with this 'Stutter Step' technique of yours, though that's all you'll need in most fights. Burns through orthstirr like a furnace, though, so that's something you ought to keep in mind.

Gathering info on Kurt Frogtongue
According to stories, gossip, and rumors, Kurt Frogtongue—second son of Faxi Bushybrows, himself the grandson of the legendary Mark Wolfbane, who slew a Fenriskin in single combat at Kinsvbjury in Geatland—was rather popular with the womenfolk in his early manhood before he married Haydis. Given the source of his kenning, there's little wonder why, exactly, he was so popular.
Of course, jealous suitors and angry menfolk put a stop to that quickly by challenging Kurt to a holmgang. Kurt Frogtongue, though far from a renowned fighter, is anything but a coward. But when he showed up to the isle with weapons and courage, there was no one there to meet him as his opponents had gotten rather drunk the night before on pre-celebratory brews. In a show of magnanimity, Kurt offered to keep the whole thing on the downlow by not mentioning any names in the retelling of the story as long as the menfolk forgot about his popularity with their women. With little other choice, they accepted, and, as a consequence, Kurt found himself married to Haydis Slipshoe.
Kurt Frogtongue also has something of a talent for cobblery and even made a pair of shoes for Dorri Rattlespear! It is said that he won the heart of fair Haydis by solving the problem she had with her shoes. No matter how well she tied the laces, her shoes kept slipping off her feet! As it turned out, there was a problem with how the heel gripped her foot and, in tightening that, Kurt solved Haydis' legendary affliction in one fell swoop.

Gathering info on Vagn Wheel-Drifter
According to stories, gossip, and rumors, Vagn Wheel-Drifter—eldest son of Jorm Snowsling, himself the eldest son of Vagn Tallsails—has only one love in his life. Having never taken a woman of any sort, it seems that Vagn gets his fill from the simple act of going ever-faster.
Having been born beyond the Hading Valley, the exploits of his early life are few and far between. Nevertheless, he's let slip some facts about himself after a few drinks. Vagn is not the type to settle down anywhere for long. He quickly grows tired of the same old roads and the same old scenery. Never has he lingered in any one place for more than five years and he is quite eager to get on his way once the shine wears off from his surroundings.
He's bold and ferocious in battle, but has had a rather unfortunate streak of bad luck when it comes to his most recent opponents. With his poor showings fresh on folks' minds, few are willing to linger around the man for fear of his bad luck rubbing off on them.

Gathering info on Dorri Rattlespear - Focus: Fighting Style
According to stories, gossip, and rumors, Dorri Rattlespear is a force to be reckoned with. Capable of laying waste to entire regions on his lonesome, he is a fearsome foe that must be carefully planned around no matter the scheme, for making a foe of him could be disastrous for any plot.
Dorri Rattlespear is said to wield the Realized spear Starshine, a weapon with an edge of Shivering Iron passed down to him through generations. Decorated with dangling rings of red gold, the spear rattles and jangles as it does its dread work. Though Starshine certainly had a hand in how Dorri acquired his kenning, it is far from the only reason behind the name Rattlespear.
Dorri Rattlespear has three combat hugareida, one of which he is said to be a master of. The first is none other than dread Earthquake. A master in its usage, he once forced the walls of a fortress to collapse in on itself during the Riot Wars. He also bears Landslide—an Earth Hugareida—and Acceleration.
Dorri Rattlespear has two Martial Styles, Mirror Waltz and Crushing-Crevice. Mirror Waltz, the landmark style of Kyrsvikingar, involves bouncing hugareida and other attacks at the source, scaling off the strength of the attack. Crushing-Crevice, however, is a ring style currently in the possession of Dorri himself. It is said that he's done little to help spread the usage of it, allowing it to slowly fade out of public perception. Whether that's because he has some issue with it or not is unclear.
Whenever he takes to the battlefield, it is best to stay out of his way as he lays low whole swathes of the enemy. Credited with over three hundred kills, he is death on legs and any warrior should think twice before challenging a master like him.
He fights with shield and spear, a master of offense and defense fully capable of swapping between the two on the fly. With a wicked intelligence and sharp eyes, it is said that though he is a beast of combat, his greatest strength lies in his ability to read his foes and develop counter-strategies with seaming ease.

Learning Latin from Brother Bartholomew
"You're doing quite well, young miss Halla," Brother Bartholomew nods before shuffling in, the smile slipping as he points to the writing slate in your hands. "However, there's more than a few mistakes in this script."
Bartholomew, as a teacher, is tough but fair—the toughest you've ever had, in fact! Where other teachers allow you to ask off-topic questions, Bartholomew has no patience for any such perceived laziness. Breaks are few and far between, though never so lacking as to cause actual problems. Honestly, it reminds you a lot of the bad parts of men's work—the days-long treks into the wilds to forage up food and fodder, to name but a single example.
Still, it beats learning weaving from Asveig, that's for sure! ...The necklace around your neck grows heavy with the thought of your long-gone mother. Man, it's been a few years since you last thought about your mom, huh? Not a day goes by that you don't miss Steinarr's presence, but Asveig? That's... Does that make you a bad daughter?
Bartholomew squints as the sound of pen-on-wax goes silent, a light frown dusting across his face, "You stopped writing, is everything alright?"
Blinking, you snap back to the present with a hurried shake of the head, "No, well, yeah, but," you breathe a heavy groan as you slump and run hands across your face, "Guh, I need a break! All this Latin's making my brain go silly."
Bartholomew stares for a long moment before sighing. Waving a hand above his head, he shakes it before stretching his back and stifling a yawn, "Yes, well, I suppose that a break may well be in order," he grumbles to himself as he pours a mug of light ale while sliding over two bowls of the evening meal—a soup of onions, beats, and whale meat served with a healthy loaf of fresh-baked bread.
Quickly drowning out your thoughts with the meal set before you, you find your mind turning to a new, more welcome topic: Bartholomew. You'd tried to get information out of him in the past, but the man was on a mission to teach you Latin and he'd brook no distractions in his quest to do just that. However, with a bowl of warm food set before him, perhaps now is the time to make your move? Never before has someone successfully avoided your questions and now is no different!
Turning to your tutor, you eye him with curiosity in your gaze. "So, Bartholomew, where are you from? Do you have any family? What do you hope to do once you get back?"
Can Halla get Bartholomew talking? (Silver-Tongue: 15+1(Friendly)+6(Odr)-12(Difficulty)+1(Reward Dice)) 11, a Good Success
Distracted by the warm meal, Bartholomew doesn't notice your empty bowl as he answers, "I was born in a wealthy estate in Mercia, near to the border with Wales. The second son of a wealthy Thane, my life was a simple one as I had little in the way of ambition other than for my studies. My elder brother—I had three siblings, two brothers and a sister—was a Thane in all the important ways while my younger brother took to the Chivalric path with glee." Tapping the spoon against the bowl, Bartholomew sighs and shakes his head, "He died in a duel of honor, mere days after earning his Knighthood. It was his death that actually prompted King Alfred to ban the practice for Englishborn Knights and Squires, a sentiment few were happy with back then."
"And your sister, what of her?" Eager to not lose the moment, you slide another bowl your way before digging in.
Bartholomew's face twists into a deep frown as he sighs once more, "Died in childbirth, I'm afraid. A surprise set of triplets were two-too-many for my dear Anne. As I was captured as war-booty in a raid not long after, I haven't any idea as how her husband, Godwin Blackstone, cared for the children. I can only hope that he accepted them as his, for I suppose I shall find out when I return."
Your spoon clatters against the once-more empty bowl as you hear that name. Blackstone? Like Gabriel Blackstone?
Blackhand's chuckles echo in your head, 'The world is a shockingly small place, sometimes.'
Bartholomew twitches as the clatter of wood-on-wood draws him from his thoughts. Shaking his head, he rounds on you with a deeply-motivated set to his jaw, "That's enough of a break! Back to work, for I have a home to see!"

Unveiling Fylgjur
One after the other, you unveil the fylgjur of your close friends and adult family. While you've only got the time for a few fylgjur—about half the total number—you've still got enough strength for eight unveilings.
As Trausti steps away from the circle, his newly-revealed bear following close behind, you wipe a thick layer of sweat from your brow as you smile.
All around you are people getting used to and well-acquainted with their newfound fylgjur companions. Asva's owl circles overhead alongside Haydis' raven. Jordan and Stigmar's dogs run around with Tryggr's wolf as Kurt's frog rides upon his shoulder. Stigrun's snake slithers over the ground as Stigrun herself stares with a certain unhappiness to her mien.
Not everyone is satisfied with how their soul is expressed in animal form, for staring into a fylgja is staring into one's own soul and such a sight is not always welcome.
But such is life.

Exploring the Coast (Hamingja: 20+2(Reward Dice)) 22, a Superior Success
Your own fylgja soars high overhead as you send it scouting across the coasts. There, as it flies upon the thermal updrafts and wide-open skies, you spy what appears to be a total of five new farms being constructed by faces you struggle to recognize.
It seems you'll be having a fair few new neighbors in the coming months. Perhaps you should go and introduce yourself sometime?

AN: Not super happy with this one, but it's the first turn back in the saddle of normal turns so I'll allow it.
Also, I'll not be rolling random events for a few years in an effort to give you folks some downtime. To help with this, I'll ask that you folks not go on any voyages as that will be super intensive and I'd like a break from that for a bit. You can assign people to go on voyages in your stead, though, and they'll not be rolling any danger rolls or anything like that—unless you overuse it.
25-minute moratorium.

Nice. That all went well for the most part...Stutter Step in particular is a very good addition to our capabilities for all sorts of reasons.
We get a free action this turn, I think? So this should be one more?
Also, does attending the Thing count as a Travel action, or a social action, or what? It's supposed to be low key but I'm not clear

Ah, that's good. My impression was that we'd been making bank from acting as a trader, so hopefully we can turn it into something more regular than an adventure each time.

Okay, so, tentative plan here. I was thinking the Thing would be a social action, so the social is a bit last minute, and we have one Research unchosen as of yet, but the rest seems right to me to get those who have sworn to us their world-class armor and our farm's final tools worked out. plus, Abjorn needs some more buffing items...hopefully he won't be fighting a duel, but we should prepare, and he'll definitely fight again.
For the personal action I'm currently thinking we try and talk Ingolf through stuff, maybe start teaching him Campfire? That's the friendliest possible fire interaction, and might give him some feeling of control. Plus, it involves being around Halla while she does non-scary stuff.

What do you have in mind? We still have a large supply of Odr even after that...not unlimited but large, and a free Research action. We could potentially throw something in.
No, I spaced. I'll add that for both him and Shadeclaw, though (up to 3 each).

I feel like I had a good idea, but I can't quite recall it right now.
Barring that, I think it might be worthwhile seeing if we can establish the method of Expansion, I know the idea I came up with a while back was "Use Odr as the paint and Muna as the brush to fill in the Empty Canvas."
Hmm, what do we have to do to arrange passage back to Wessex for Bart?
- Pronouns
- He/Him
Hmmm. What Muna would we use? I'm not against trying this with a bit of Odr, but we need to decide what we want.
Hire someone or send a retainer, but it's Winter so that probably needs to be done in the first turn of next year.
