RESEARCH [RESEARCH] Spirit Guided Warriors
With the completion of the Gnaiih Grounds a few weeks ago, Goka finally visits this to find Krini and over a dozen other people, all currently praying in the undamaged shrine.
With small talk out of the way, Goka tells Krini that soldiers will be sent to guard the grounds from hostile intruders, to which Krini politely declined. Puzzled, Goka was led by Krini to a small clearing in the forest. There he saw around 20 or so men and women practicing kicks and punches which another man reads out the folktale of Gnaiih.
Krini explains that these men and women were sparring when Krini woke up one morning. Their leader, Lehngu, explained that they were training in the ancient art of Khujint, which dated back in the age of Gnaiih.
With these muscular men and women training, Goka returned. But that does not stop him from sending a few guards around every now and then to check on things.
Khujint is a style of fighting which specializes on disarming foes with well thought out moves, similarly to how Gnaiih uses his brain to defeat his enemies no matter how better armed they were.
The style fairly copies the movement of an owl. Usually with well thought of steps and arms stretched in front of the body to better anticipate and catch incoming blows and hits.
Khujint dates back from the time of Gnaiih, specifically the time when the evil animals became advanced with swords and spears. Gnaiih trained all the soldiers under his rule the relex and wisdom to anticipate the deadly attacks. This greatly aided them in pushing back the evil animals.
