Elero let out a long sigh and picked up her sword. 'I just need to focus.'

"So what's the drawback of Flow?" Frey asked, suppressing the urge at look at Elero. "You said there was always a cost to strength."
Alexander frowned: "You two just asked about it, hopelessness. I even said it. Are you dense?" Frey nodded while Thomas tried not to laugh. Alexander sighed and continued: "A humble one, aren't you? The Flow is a strong tide. Yesterday, your body failed to act in line with its will, putting your mind and body at odds. You incurred the cost of going against the Flow. Even though you had energy left, everything slowed as if you were thrown into the tide's murky depths. The more momentum you have, the greater the cost."
…
'Strike,' Elero grunted and lurched forward but her arms refused to move. The sword fell out of her grasp, clattering to the ground. Her legs returned to mush. Pain rocked through her face, which smacked into the tree.
I've never done a training montage before but there's always a first time for everything. Let me know what you think. I appreciate critisism (NOT BLANTANT HATE) but critisism. If I don't find mistakes in my writing, then I don't grow: that's my mentality. Growth keeps me motivated. This is as much training for me as it is for the characters. That said, I think I'm going to have to adjust my schedule yet again. I'll only post 6 times a week because I need to stockpile more chapters.
