Part 699: Robin A

Aha! There she be! We've been seeking you, my partner and I, for we wish to offer our humble thanks.

"Partner"? ...You mean your sword?

After our fruitful dialogue, I was resolved to become better acquainted with my blade. Strange to tell, but since that day we've become a mighty force on the battlefield.

'Tis like gods themselves are reaching down to guide every parry and blow!

Oh?

Yes! Why, just the other day, some fiend launched an arrow at my back. Instead of striking me, it glanced off the blade as I swung to strike another! Training has become easier, I learn new skills without effort, and my armor gleams. Plus, I found a four-leaf clover and got the end cut of the roast three days running! Everything's comin' up Owain!

I'm not sure what it has to do with clovers and roast ox, but I'm please for you.

You couldn't give my sword a name, sure.

But instead, you pointed the way to a deeper understanding of my faithful blade. And let's face it, that's MUCH more important than some silly moniker! I'll be sure to seek you out the next time I need advice on anything!

Well, I'm glad it...all worked out.

O fount of deepest understanding! O goddess of infallible wisdom!

Er, okay, Owain, you're welcome. Just keep your voice down a little?
