Only one more week with a bow before I’m allowed to use other weapons at Swordcraft again. My self-imposed exile from close combat has been an interesting six months, that’s for sure! There are new members of my warband who haven’t seen me fight before, and who were a bit shocked on a training day when I beat The Prince at single sword. To be completely honest, I kind of surprised myself as well. I’d now consider myself passable with a bow, so I’ve gained something from it all!
