"in the courner!" i smiled, pointing them out

I grabbed the blankets at once, tripping over one. "Gyah!"

"..." i darted over and caught her at the last moment... "you okay?"

"Eheh.... I guess I got really ambitious..." I laughed meekly, righting myself.

"lucky duck!" i smiled, lowering her gentally to the floor with a giggle that turned into a bone jarring laugh

I pouted, though it was obvious I was trying to hide a smile. "Well, this isnt going to do itself!...sort of..."

"well, it could, but that would ruin our fun!" i smiled, poking her nose as i got up and began to start on the walls

"Well, at least im more used to it this way..."

"exactly! and this way, i gain some muscle as well!" i smiled, holding the blankets togeather as i linked them with some string by hand

"Theyre blankets, not anvils," I smiled, helping.

"but i dont do much menial labor... everything i do is usually by magic..." i said with a smile, pinning the bottom of the blanket to the wall

"...So without magic, you cant really fend for yourself?"

"oh i can, but its very difficult for me if its anything other than a dagger or a rapeir.... if i was a guy, maybe id have a better chance, but as such, i rely to much on my magic in order to protect me... its the curse of being a female mage.... one that you wont have to worry about, seeing as you have only recently discovered magic... but with a Rapeir, im a destructive force on the battlefeild.... they used to call me the rose of death... would walk into battle in a white dress, and return in a red one... but i dont remember what happened that i couldnt continue anymore..." i said, forgetting that i had been banished from the Order

"Oh...I see...." I was amazed she could speak so proudly about how well she could kill people. Oh well, this world was different. I smoothened out the creases in the blanket. "Guess it must be awesome to be handy with a sword..."

"Rapeir is a very thin sword, made for jabbing, not a broad sword or a cleaver that most use... i could teach you if you want..." i smiled lightly "sorry, being able to defend ones self as a girl is an incredible acheivment"

"Yeah, I guess your right. Annoying people at least would back off..." I said, thinking about it.

"tell you what, ill teach you the Rapeir, and if i can find my old book on how to weild a broadsword, we will learn togeather... so, cooking, dictation, and sword training... what else"

"...Maybe we should try to learn just that for now..." I said with a nervous giggle.

"first we finish the fort, then roast meat over a fire! then stories!" i said with a deep voice, then fell down giggleing

I laughed, "Sounds good!"

"damn right it does!" i smiled, beginning to sow some blankets togeather with fabric that could be easily removed

"Man, we could even sleep here!"

"why not!" i said with a laugh, struggling to reach up and conect the blanket to the top

"Want some help?"

"yes please..." i sighed, not used to having someone to help me
