The Lost were now allowed to expand their lands into something more constructive than grasslands and tents, but even so Shik was at a loss of what to do. There was no way he would ever be able to rebuild his old home or return to the way life used to be, not in this dismal section of a forest they were situated in. The trees were beginning to grow into handsome specimens, yes, but for the most part they were still saplings. And now he had to make the choice of what to do with himself in this shadow of home.
So Shik did as he always did when thinking failed him. He grabbed a weapon he was least used to and went to practice with it.
Today's case was the bow and arrow, as he had recently finished knives after his battle with Shaheen. Remembering the gray streaks on her face and how tight-lipped she was about it, Shikoba frowned to himself. It was just like the gray he had seen on his War-Sister Radha before she concealed it . . . Distracted, the first arrow he loosed into the tree was off by several inches, flying into the path leading west. The executioner let off a soft curse, fitted a second arrow, and fired it off with better precision.
And perhaps a bit too much draw on the string. The wooden arrow split from the force of impact, leaving only the upper half embedded in the trunk.
Balance, he cold hear his old mentor chide him. In all things you do, there must be balance.
The only thing Shikoba wanted to balance at the moment was a tower of Hunter skulls.

The reaction he got from Lan was near instant. She launched herself back, keeping the distance between them. "With control come strength, discipline. Power requires control, a decisive knowledge of how to use you power, and how it is best used. Control is needed, without it, everything would fall apart."
Another arrow, and she smiled though her arrow missed. "Everything can be controlled and conquered.If you think otherwise, you're a fool. Horsemen were born to rule, or have those of War forgotten such?"

"Hmm." As the arrow sailed over his shoulder, Shik gave pause long enough to send a warning shot of his own at her feet, turned useless when Lan leapt back. Unlike Yuzhi, she liked to keep her distance. But then, bows were not as versatile as spears.
"We understand control in a different manner," he answered, continuing to advance at a faster pace, one hand reaching back to grab another arrow; he was down to, what, seven now? "Dominate or destroy. The end result is the same. But, while I do agree withmost of what you said," he added with a small, crooked smile, "do not suppose you will control me."
