( It's been nearly a day since the bridges have been built, connecting the northern half of Beacon to that of the eastern half. Javert has already conducted a full patrol of the village, inspecting the buildings and taking meticulous notes of the damage. He doesn't have time to delve into the details, tired as he is, and drained, though he does feel it pertinent to mention, )

It seems we will have to find new location to practice combat training and first aid. The gymnasium does not look as if it's worth the effort to salvage, with the ceiling caved in and the building filled with water.

Any suggestions you have would be helpful. I'd be inclined to offer the armory, seeing as it is already stocked with weapons and supplies, but it is too far inconvenient to access without a nearby bridge. Perhaps that can be remedied.

( And as a second matter, he adds, )

If there are any other skills you believe we should teach one another, I ask that you speak up. I'm sure there are many of you who'd prefer to be taught by someone of our group rather than that of a stranger. With Dr. Solis gone, it seems more imperative now than ever that we keep each other alive.

Combat can take place anywhere there's space, can't it? Maybe near the harbor.

There's also the school. Could clear trees in front of it to make an open yard, and the classrooms could be useful for first aid training. Building seems to be in good shape.

Sir. I know many of the survival skills that the Wild Hunt was teaching. And how to swim.

And anywhere else you would like to teach I will help set it up. I like the armory as it is defended and already has mats, but the school is closer. We could clear out an actual classroom.

Thank you for spearheading this effort, Inspector. I believe we have many options, and I will do what I can to continue offering an opponent for learners to practice again.

I am relieved to find you well.

That sucks, but I'm sure there are plenty of spaces we can convert and that aren't flood damaged. We've already been building bridges so adding one more probably wouldn't hurt -- not to mention as you said the armory already has a lot of the supplies we need.

I'll be happy to help with any set up and of course continuing with lessons and training once we've finished some of the clean up anyway.

It might not hurt to add some broader survival skills -- so much has changed now that it probably wouldn't hurt to do a little more to learn how to survive off the land here and more skills related to preparation as opposed to just defense or dealing with injuries.

( Matt has always kept up on the lessons Javert has been running, even though he's never joined in. too busy hiding things, really, and besides. there's always been plenty of individuals able to teach hand to hand.

that's not what he's here to offer, in fact. )

I'm not sure how well it could translate, but I've spent most my life living and functioning in the dark. I could try teaching others how I do it. Might help us be more aware of our surroundings.

I'm not sure what I can offer that most other people haven't covered already, but I'm happy to help round out other people teaching things. Or work alongside them to help expand it more - I saw Soldat talk about swimming lessons before, at the very least I can make sure people don't drown trying.

> Hello, sir! My name is Pudding. I'm a skilled cook, and I'd be more than happy to give lessons.
