Rin chuckled. "Tis safer'n most things, I suppose. Though you are astute for guessing my age. Most think I am twice a man grown, by my size."

"Aye, but your eyes tell different. I raised boys taller than me in the training yard. I watched them grow and I know their eyes. You are but a boy now, but you will grow into a fine lad."

Rin smirked. "All this talk of eyes makes me uncomfortable. Should I show you the way to the palace, then?"

"Yes, if you don't mind accompanying me. I am without friends here in Tyrosh, and I feel some..native company would be much welcome." He said with a smile.

"Friends are of high value here in Tyrosh. Traveling with me is like having two friends at once, one to show you the way, and one to scare off any thieves." He laughed. "Though they don't usually try and skiv you while you are standing in broad daylight."

"Well than I'm glad I asked you," said Will, smiling. "We better be on our way, so we don't find ourselves in the dark then."

"Let us be on our way then. I don't believe I caught your name?"

"My name is Ser Willhelm. I am a Master-at-Arms from the Northern part of Westeros. And yourself?"

"Rin." The youth stated, scratching the patchy beard that was sprouting.
"I apprentice with Grandmaster Zuul, greatest smith in the Free Cities, some say the world. Myself, I just say he's the best in the smithy. For now." He smirked.

"Ahhh a boy with ambition." After raising so many bodys in the yard, he had grown to relish in the ambition and aspirations of young men and women, hoping to help them in their goals. "I notice you carry a hammer on your hip. I'm quite renown for my skill with the warhammer. In fact, I carry an extra, though it's edges are not as sharp." Will smiled. This boy had potential. "If you like, I'm quite good at teaching the ways of melee battle. Especially with the hammer. In exchange for your friendship in this city, I will teach you how to better swing a hammer. "

"What makes you so sure that I am not beyond your ability to teach?" Rin asked, a mischievous smile playing across his face. "How about if I show you to the palace, we enter the training yard and have a nice spar." Rin held out his hand. "Deal?"

Will took his hand and shook. "Deal. Though even if you are good with a hammer, are you good in battling with a hammer? Can you be smart with a hammer? Can you ride with a hammer." Will winked.

"It's entirely possible. My father always said that I was skilled with the hammer, he said it runs in the blood. Though battle is entirely different. I have trained with some of the finest warriors in the palace. Exknights and the like, though none, surprisingly, who had chosen the warhammer as their passion. I won't deny that you have much to teach me, though I cannot pass up an opportunity to mock battle someone so like minded."

Will chuckled "Aye, I don't doubt I have some to learn from you, and your father. Lead the way, young Rin."

Rin laughed and walked off to the north, heading toward the palace.
