Artanis heard the exchange between Brandon and Ash and decided that it was best to make sure he wouldn't be dealing with friendly fire if what he said about 'practice' was true. He sighed, pinched the bridge of his nose, and closed his eyes as he did something he was sure might be a bad idea if it went the way he was thinking it would.
"Here then, Brandon. If we get the time to I'll attempt to give you a few pointers before we go down into the cave. Maybe also a bit of practice before we have another incident where every one of us misses something at point-blank range."
He remembered his own miserable shots and then remembered something that made him groan and he hung his head in annoyance.
"I left my bow where that bat was didn't I? Alright then, I'm going to get my bow while you guys get this figured out. Moss fluff, I'm going to have to get a new one if I don't unstring it soon."
He kept muttering under his breath about the proper care for a bow as he went off in search of his bow.
