Shara followed Ning's motions in the firelight, moving the spear ever so slowly to do exactly what he showed or what he said.
"Stab!" he said as he gestured to what she had to do with his own body. He didn't have a spear, but he did have a piece of stick they had found that he used to teach her.
Shara stabbed forward with both her hands.
"Hold."
Ning walked over to her nudged her right elbow up a bit and lowered her left elbow to the side. "Use your shoulders and then your entire body. That's where the power behind the stab comes from."
He moved to the other side. "Now pull back."
Shara did as told.
"And back at ease."
She got out of her fighting stance, holding the spear next to her.
"Now, close your eyes and do what you just did."
Shara followed Ning's instructions and learned how to hold and use the Spear. She was getting used to the spear for now, understanding its weight, length, and balance.
