((Actual players do not take part, you talk to a bunch of students. Under normal circumstances, you would control the group but this time I will role-play as the class.))
The disinterested group of students look up at Ishtar in a sleepy fashion. One of them says:
"How on earth can anyone fight without weapons? Fighting battles without a sword sounds pretty stupid to me."
A murmur of agreement runs through the class.

((ah, k didn't noe that srry)) ishtar looks at them disbelievingly, "you have to know how to fight to be able hold a sword or any other weapon! for instance any one of you, fight me!" with this ishtar keeps his staff and dagger aside and readies himself with his tiger's paw ability,"you may have any weapon you like from the two i have placed here, and i will then show you how to fight without them."

The student who made the remark gets up with a wide arrogant grin on his face. He picks up the dagger.
After a few minutes of staring at one another intently, the student lunges at Ishtar with the dagger. He is unafraid of hurting the man due to the large healing staff present on the campus.

ishtar nimbly dodges, and brings down a blow to the students back, then holding him squarely from the shoulder, trips him over his leg but holds on to his shirt so that he doesn't hit the ground,"you still want to continue?" ishtar smiles

"Arrghhh! Let me go.. I agree.."
The boy squirms as he tries to free himself from the man's grip.

The boy who was defeated by Ishtar, joined the line with a scowl on his face. The class follows the man until they reach the beautiful, green lawns of Shandon. They look at Ishtar enquiringly.

"ok listen up leave anything that you are holding, and hold your hand outstretched at shoulder height, palm facing opposite you, now hold the other one exactly the same at waist level, palm facing opposite and keep you elbow a bit bent." ishtar says, "this is called karate, and no it doesn't matter which hand you keep in position, and no you don't shove your hand in your partners face."

The children follow Ishtar's commands. One of them shouts:
"Now what Sir?"

"ok please just stop, see the object is to streamline your movements, delivering maximum pain possible."ishtar sighs, then goes into a complex series of hand movements involving spinning around and delivering a blow to a person."try to move your hands as fast as humanly possible in the same position i specified, when you are done, you won't need weapons to fight."

The students spend an hour trying to copy Ishtar's swift movements. They manage to master the very basics of bare handed fighting.
