It has come to my attention [ read as: he stalks the network and read/overheard ] that there are many here who are unfamiliar with the types of weapons in Rage's armory. Given the level of danger in this place, it would be prudent for those of you who do not know how to fight to receive training.

As such, I am offering my services as instructor. While I prefer to fight with a sword and shield myself, I have more than a passing knowledge of most of the weapons in the armory. Should you require instruction I cannot provide myself, I will introduce you to someone who can help.

If you are interested, I may be contacted by these devices or found near house #1502.

I know armed and unarmed combat. Not sword and shield, but I do know knives.

My Zergling and I would like to watch, and we can help as well.

You're from a world where sword and shield are acceptable weaponry, aren't you? I'm not sure our terminology overlaps much.

Most combat knives I've seen were sharp along all of one edge and at least part of the other, sometimes with a serrated portion on the reverse edge for utility purposes, but having a knife that differs from that won't be a problem.

We can spar, too, if you'd like to try your hand at fighting me.

I hadn't even considered that.

If I can get it to grasp the concept of 'attack, but don't injure or kill', then perhaps.
