MAEA
Most left. Not Maea. She stood rooted and stared in fascination at the squat little man and his intense battle against the invisible something. What he was fighting she couldn't tell, but from where she stood, he looked to be winning. The bow and quiver hung limp and lackluster from her unmoving hands, and whatever shooting she had done so far had been immensely unsatisfactory. Mostly because it didn't really interest her anymore.
When someone coughed impatiently behind her, waiting for their turn at the butt, she nearly jumped out of her skin and hurriedly went to retrieve the arrows. As they were pulled one by one and gathered into the quiver, she kept watching the shadow fight in the corner of her eye. Intrigued. Awed by the intensity of it - not to mention the sheer and utter lack of care taken of the snickering and gawking that had gone on until a moment ago.
After setting her weapons aside, the young woman approached the one combatant she could actually see, and waved a pale hand to draw his attention. She had stopped on a safe distance from him - it seemed the prudent thing to do, considering the fervor with which he was stabbing into the air.
"Excuse me," she initiated politely. "Could you teach me how to fight like that?"
