Editing Lucy Ellingson (section)

===Tactics===
She's also been receiving one-on-one lessons in combat from [[Guilherme]] as his gift to her which elevates her skill in combat generally and formalized single combat in particular. This continued even after he "fell" to winter which changed the training somewhat. [[Bubbleyum]] added her own training as well,<ref>''Don’t panic.  ''Guilherme’s lesson.<br><br>''Panic effectively''.  Bubbleyum’s. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/06/28 Excerpt] from [[Crossed with Silver 19.10]]</ref><ref name=wr7>Guilherme had always been a striker. Any time he was in position to grab, he’d be in position to take her out in a single blow… so why bother dealing with the multi-part process of grabbing her and figuring out what to do with her after?<br><br>It was Bubbleyum who’d gotten into the training with grabs and stuff. Hands reached for Lucy, and she punched out, meeting reaching fingers with blunt force-<br><br>A woman, a grown man, and a teenager came at Lucy from three directions. Lucy applied a principle she’d learned with use of the weapon ring against Guilherme in their earlier sparring, back in the spring and very early summer. There, she’d used the weapon ring, meeting the furthest targets with whip, then switching her weapon to the spear as they got a few steps closer, then switching to a blade, then something shorter range- always enough that the enemy had to walk into a waiting weapon swing if they wanted to close the distance.<br><br>Here, as fingers reached for her, she punched, connecting knuckle to finger. As she focused on one set of hands, others got closer- so she met them with elbow.<br><br>And then forehead, for the last set. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/12/17 Excerpt] from [[Hard Pass 22.3]]</ref> including a "charm" to help her heal from minor injuries.<ref>“Ah, but the cold can give you frostbite. You’re protected by your attire. You’re protected from the little cuts and scrapes by the charm Bubbleyum taught you.” - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/05/31/crossed-with-silver-19-2/ Excerpt] from [[Crossed with Silver 19.2]]</ref> With further training by John and other [[Dogs of War]],<ref>Lucy wore a red jacket, military style, her earring caught the light, dog tags were out from beneath her top.  Faerie trained, goblin trained, Dog of War trained.  She talked with Anthem, who was in Kennet found.  That was… pretty spooky.  She’d fought Anthem and managed.  She’d gone after Joel the dragonslayer and some of the boys.  Now Joel was out sick, too hurt to go to the Abyss, and he’d be out of commission until Maricica came up to visit him directly.  It hadn’t been obvious, but Dony had apparently cut fingers to the bone trying to hold onto some dragonslayer weapon when she’d disarmed him.  There was the bruise, black eye, sore ribs…<br><br>She was annoyed all over again, thinking about it.  That they hadn’t gone to their goddess of glory and blood to get healed.  ''They had a goddess on tap,'' God damn it.<br>[...]Verona would be annoying, but Lucy…<br><br>That earring was apparently her implement. Her declaration to the world about what she was about. She listened. She caught things.<br><br>Kira-Lynn didn’t want to get caught here. She had work to do. - [https://palewebserial.wordpress.com/2022/09/25 Excerpt] from [[Let Slip 20.f]]</ref> is part of the reason she called herself a Trifold Duelist. She also trained with [[Anthem]].

She has taken to using the trio's training in [[glamour]] to shrink down her magical gear into images that she can store in a locket and has taken. She also makes [[glamour]]ed-up fox decoys, hiding herself among them in a metaphysical [[Wikipedia:Shell game|Shell game]]. Latter she hid effects and allys within the foxes.
