Through the sea of sand (Open)

[The Kid]

As the Kid sat down and made the barge, he listened to Alex talk. The much larger man would bring up the fact that people who come here were either weakened or strengthened on their arrival. Omni may have said something on the subject but the boy could hardly remember. He was then asked how he had been feeling since he had touched down. "Hmm..." He said thinking to himself. "Yeah actually I have been feeling different. In two ways, one being that I'm just not as strong here. I gave my hammer a few practice swings, I figured I would be in for a lot of fighting once I fell down to the fountain and an honest to Pif dragon was waiting for me there. Given the thing flew off once I made myself known. But what's important is that when I swung it around, it was just a lot heavier then it was back home. I don't think I could do near as much damage with it. Hell, back in Calandia when I was done forging and reforging this friend of mine, I could punch a whole in hard alloy with just a single swing. Now, I don't know."

"The other way being that my bodies actually gotten much tougher. When I arrived I realized I was not getting fatigued as easily." He tapped the solid steel that was his armored left shoulder. "Eventually I found out that this was feeling a lot lighter. I could move like I was hardly wearing a shirt. I took it off to check that it was not switched out for a copy made of tin plate dirt. Before I then tried something else. Took one of these long arrows here...." He reached into a quiver on his back. "And tried to cut my hand with the tip... It was like cutting though iron. These arrows were made by me back home too, I know how good they are. Hell, one shot could take a bolt like this clean through.... Ugg I don't like saying this actually, but it was five people before it stopped. Now I can hardly cut myself with it. How tough did your body end up after you were "normalised" ?"

He asked climbing up on weeping Nellie. He heard him say that he would prefer staying on his.... Thing. He was right though, it would probably keep the a bit safer from the bandits. If it could keep up. "Well let me know when we're heading off. Nellie only has one setting for speed you see, and that's full throttle."
