[And with that he turns to leave. So dramatic. Anyway, he's going to go fetch his own weapon. A sword with a sawtooth on the sharp side that he commissioned from the local blacksmith not too long ago. It's not quite the same as the one he used in the metaverse but it's close enough.

Aaand just as promised he'll be waiting for her near the mills.]
