Hideo

**Hideo pulled out his copper axe and began to climb up the hickory tree. He unslung his copper axe and began to knock off a thick branch with his dull axe. The wood was dense and hard, so it was a demanding task.
**Hideo began to carve the hickory into a straight shaft with the head of his axe. He began to grind the shaft with a rough stone and taper it down slightly to the end.
**After finishing it with the rough stone, he began to polish it up with a finer stone- making the shaft desirable to hold. With a final touch, he laminated it in pine sap and let it dry in the sun for a while.

Vantar and Hideo sparred.

Adopted a different fighting style to try to develop better coordination with complex movements.

Hideo partook in the siege. He stayed close to his formation and covered the sides of his fellow spearmen.

After battle, he began looting many corpses of the bandits that lay around. Anything that struck his eye- iron spears, iron swords- he took anything that could've been useful- efficiently. If he saw spears? He cut the metal off of the shafts. Swords? Collected them in a bag, tied them together. He picked as many corpses as he could dry. Using the blade on his axehead, he would cut away at the leather straps that may bind pieces of metal on any petty soul's armor, and collect them for later use. A man's trousers were untouched? Taken, and the shoes too. Anything that got too heavy for him, he left off to the side for anyone to take.
