When: 19th August
Where: Barracks Roof
Attending:
Michael Vandrik, Templi Squire

Marcus Tel'Var, Guardsman
Torrak Keres, Guardsman
Taybard Jaekel, Guardsman
Kas Valentine, Arcanist
After introducing Friar Vandrik to the Guardsmen, Father Siegfried instructed me to lead those gathered in Training. Immediately, I instructed the Friar and the Guardsmen to lay forth their bandages. Satisfied they were all well supplied, I did instruct them in the manner of battle. 'Tis of great import that Friar Vandrik learn to fight as part of a group, protecting his fellows in battle and thusly protected in turn.
I chose to test Friar Vandrik's self-discipline by having the archer loose arrows at him, forcing him to rely upon his companion to shield him. In battle, we will oft encounter wytchery. I chose to inflict a sterner test upon the Friar, ordering the arcanist to cast his foul spells. Friar Vandrik was knocked to the ground after some time, but I am satisfied all were enlightened as to the necessity for fighting as part of a company.
The Friar and the Guardsmen put the lessons to practice, as we fought several mock battles. Satisfied the lessons were well learned, I called an end to the training. Following the training, I led those assembled against the undead at the cemetery to ensure the training had been taken to heart. A report chronologing the ensuing battle hath already been submitted.
