My Chocobo & The Tenshodo

I have been trying to take good care of my chocobo Souther Star. The handlers tell me that he is doing ok when I seem them. He was finally hungry enough where I had to feed him. I gave him a San D'Oria carrot and it didn't fill him up but he wasn't hungry either. I decided that I didn't want to be fattening him up as a proper diet is important so I didn't feed him the greens I had.

He was under the weather one of the days, but the next day he was back to being a care free chocobo. So far he is still the baby colors of yellow with the little bit of red on the feathers behind his head. He seems to be missing me lately and the handler had me take a hanky to get my scent on it. I will carry it around a bit longer then will give it to my chocobo so he has some feeling like I am there with him.

Lots of people are worried about how strong their chocobo will be. I just want mine to be happy and healthy. Anything that comes additional will be ok with me.

I finished my training as a Ranger some time ago. The training as a ranger in the dunes was mostly uneventful, and I even met some competent people there. I will probably need to train again as a Ranger in the future but for now I am going to concentrate on my Samurai training.

I have been spending lots of my time in Jeuno as it is close to the training area of Qufim Island. I have had a couple good days of training out in Qufim and have increased my Samurai skills. Since my skills have increased I needed to get myself a new katana. It was quite an event. I will have to write down what happened soon, but for now I am still thinking on what has happened.

I also have joined the Tenshodo. The task was really easy for a secretive group of individuals. I was able to get an application form from Bastok and get joined up with no problems. They sell equipment that I may find a use for and their blades are higher quality than those on the street merchants. There is a high fee for these items also, but quality is worth the extra price.

I hope to master my meditation technique soon, as I know many Samurai are able to use it to attack with great strength. I have also learned through the Tenshodo that the Norg Samurai have found some old scrolls that should allow us to learn from some of the past masters to increase our offensive and defensive capability's. There is also some information on how to master one of the skills earlier in a Samurai's training. These would prove highly beneficial to me and I hope that they start training us Samurai in these new techniques soon.

I need to get back to Souther Star, he seems to be fussing... and wanting to nibble on my book. Will write more later about the events that happened.
