Timestamp: A couple of brightening after he signed up for the cage fight…
IC:
Endurance Dzie thought as he left Finnbarrs house this early brightening. He hadn’t been getting much sleep since he had signed up for the tournament and he wasn’t sure how to tell Finnbarr. Would she be mad? Could or would she encourage him? Either way, it was a hard thing to tell the person that you love. The suns were just starting to rise as Dzie took off down the streets at a jog. He wasn’t the most enduring person…not at all. He had walked from Nexus to Vortex and Vortex back, but not close to the same amount of time as someone who could walk for a long time. So it was only a matter of blocks before the half-human half-elf became out of breath and sweaty.
Must keep going, just for a little longer. It’s only a mental barrier he tried to convince himself. Running jogging took a lot more out of you then walking, which was good. The reason he was doing this wasn’t because he was worried about losing extra fat, which he had gained a little of since moving in with Finnbarr…mmm such good food there. It was the endurance aspect for the cage hand-to-hand bare-knuckle fighting tournament that he was in. He also decided that he was going to start eating better, at least for the fight was over with. Dzie had several short term goals that he needed to accomplish, hopefully this would help him to the 1,000 crown prize at the end of it.
Then he could start paying Finnbarr back for all of her kindnesses. He touched his thumb to the ring that she had bough him and drove on harder then he was going. Not faster, but past the barrier of exhaustion and leg pain. He had to do this for her, not just himself. She had money, and he wasn’t sure if she even had to pay for the house she lived in but that didn’t matter. Dzie didn’t want to be a leech forever. Then she could be proud of him as well, he would have accomplished something that he set out to do. He wasn’t just sitting around town doing little. He took Alchemy as well, another thing that he was proud of but this would get his name in the herald for a short time. He wasn’t looking for fame or anything else of the like, he just wanted to be recognized once and a while, anyone who says they don’t are lying.
The drive from his ring got him a few more blocks but it came to the point where he was starting to drag his feet and trip over them so he stopped for a rest. There weren’t many people about as it was really early in the morning, but the few that were Dzie watched and he sat on the sidewalk leaning his back against a wall trying to catch his breath.
