[The door in question is large and made of burnished steel. Nothing can be heard from the other side.

The other doors are the one that leads back to where you came from (also made of burnished steel) and an even bigger door that's impressively gilded.

On the way, you catch sight of something rather noticeable further inside the room: a large, beautifully crafted sword plunged halfway to the hilt into a slab of solid rock.]

[makorelief]

Uwa....

[ It takes her about two seconds of leaning against the steel to beeline immediately for the sword in the rock. ]

I wonder if this is one of the treasures.

Re: ARMORY

[wherethewildthingsare]

...Careful. It could be a trap.

Taking the big fancy sword...might signify greed, or something.

Re: ARMORY

[soulping]

[The sword calls to you, inviting to be touched.]

Re: ARMORY

[makorelief]

Mr. Sword, are you a bad sword? Or a good sword? I don't want to touch you before I find out.

Re: ARMORY

[soulping]

[No response.

However, you feel that you won't come to harm if you touch the sword.]

Re: ARMORY

[makorelief]

I'm going to touch it!

[ DOING THE THING unless someone swats her hand away ]

Re: ARMORY

[soulping]

[Touching the sword fills you with an iron certainty: this is one of Waldemar's "treasures".

Do you try to pull it free from the rock?]

Re: ARMORY

[makorelief]

I found one!!! This is it! A treasure! Mr. Sword, do you wan to come with us and save a really good dragon?

Re: ARMORY

[soulping]

[No response.]

Re: ARMORY

[makorelief]

[ fine sword, we will do it your way!! PULLING IT OUT ]

What a rude sword.

Re: ARMORY

[soulping]

[There's no give. Instead, a deep male voice echoes loudly inside your head.

FOR WHAT PURPOSE DO YOU WIELD A SWORD?

It almost, almost sounds like Waldemar's voice.]

Re: ARMORY

[makorelief]

[ JUMPING PRACTICALLY OUT OF HER SHOES ]

Aaaaah, Waldemar needs it! We're going to save him! And I may not know how to use a sword, scary voice, but I would gladly try to use one to help him, because he's our patron!

Re: ARMORY

[soulping]

[Silence.

But after a moment, the sword is able to be pulled free.]

Re: ARMORY

[wherethewildthingsare]

Oh, I guess it was fine.

Re: ARMORY

[onelevelmeaner]

This is great! We must be getting closer! ... Maybe!

Re: ARMORY

[wherethewildthingsare]

It's a start, at least.

Re: ARMORY

[makorelief]

Mm!

[ who gave the tiny child a sword!! at least she's carrying it like a proper deadly weapon and not waving it around (yet) ]

I wonder what this sword means to him.

Re: ARMORY

[wherethewildthingsare]

Maybe we'll figure it out once we have them all.

..please be careful with that.

Re: ARMORY

[makorelief]

Be careful with what?

Re: ARMORY

[wherethewildthingsare]

The sword.

Re: ARMORY

[robitussin]

[suddenly here with sunstone]

...Holy shit, I leave you alone for a few minutes and you give her a sword.

Re: ARMORY

[letstalk]

She looks cool!
