Nikolai
We are only haunted by the things we refuse to accept
-Bridgett Devoue
It's a surprise to Nikolai when his arrow actually goes where he intends. More or less, at least. Still it brings a surge of pride and renews his eagerness in the lesson. It seems that Wessex is a good teacher and hopefully he'll be able to keep up with her lessons. The praise however causes a slight flush to appear. Nikolai does however manage a shy smile and a quiet, "Thank you."-Bridgett Devoue
As the lesson continues, he focuses on Wessex's next explanation. When she shoots the arrow once more, he watches intently. Trying to determine the subtle differences in her methods and form that allow for the new technique. Taking the bow back, Nikolai nods. "Alright. I think I understand."
Drawing the next arrow, his eyes lock onto Wessex's marker in the ground. Once he steadies himself, Nikolai lets the string go. The arrow takes off, hopefully to land near the one in the earth.
Resilience is born even when we feel like we are dying
