[Training] Bound by noisy heartbeats

Jude

I'll still be here when the world slows down
And the sunbeams fade away

Pious child that he is, it's not unexpected to find Jude in Aumakua given the shrine at the top of the lighthouse. His prayers are already complete, but a restless energy hums beneath his skin in time to the thump of his feet down the metal staircase. Sunlight blinds him, one hand coming up to squint against the oppressiveness of Longheat's afternoon sun as he emerges from the lighthouse door.

He pauses there, eyes adjusting as he bites his lip and considers his options for potential outlets for the buzzing in his veins. Normally he would train with his father, but things are more than complicated with the man these days, and he has no dedicated weapon of his own. Still, maybe he could run or practice stances...?

Unaware he's blocking the way to the shrine, Jude frowns out over the sun-drenched horizon and idly begins to stretch his arms and shoulders, feeling stifled and useless.

Keeping time by a pendulum
as the fabric starts to fray
