☀️ Arselia and Akonia

"Almost. There's still the matter of Bors-san's and Linetta-dono's equipment," she says, glancing at her katana before turning her gaze to her grandfather. "I understand your reluctance to take up arms, but our situation doesn't allow for such luxuries, and I'd like to give you your crossbow. Our ranged combat isn't great, so not only would it be symbolic, but it would also be incredibly helpful. It's enchanted, so it's a powerful option. Besides, I have a couple of knives to swap out, just in case or for parrying. None of them were made for that purpose... but I don't think I'll need my tanto anymore. There are things that can easily replace its function... You can do without tobacco, so the amethyst and two bolts will go into 'other.' We could probably do a bolt and a ruby, but there aren't enough shots in it. As for you..." she looks at the girl. "You understand perfectly in any situation, unlike me, but I still think it would be right to replace 'other-2' with an amethyst in our situation; there are just too many unpleasant things in there. And also, this. I noticed you have a free slot. And it just so happens that I have an item of equipment for it. Don't think anything strange..." She hesitated and coughed lightly, presenting a souvenir cloak. "Don't let the design bother you. The effect will be very useful where we're going. I hope you understand."
