"You should wield your own swords first, sweet lady, for it is a foolish decision to head into battle with weapons you neither know nor trust. Get a feel for their weight, their grips in your hand, their edge to the wind..." [i]Astra smiled, sliding the swords back down into their respective sheaths, slowly and carefully, until the blades were hidden and the guard kissed the metal that rimmed the two scabbards. Irina still held their sheaths in hand, grips only a little bit away... she was used to her Rakuyo, so surely Aurum and Argentum would mean little difficulty?[/i] "...oh, and also: do not leave the swords separated for too long. They are a pair, and you should keep them as such... I fear they get horribly sick when they miss their twin." [i]What a weird way to talk about a pair of weapons... The angel snapped her fingers once more, right hand opening, flat palm facing the sky. Blue flames flickered up as she likely summoned in the dagger Irina requested, pulling it from some extensive arsenal in between the seams of the worlds, calling it, beckoning it, to its Master's hand. Soon enough, she held it, the sheath it was kept within presented across her hand, fingers deftly wrapping around it. She got Irina's attention back with a quick whistle, the dagger held towards her, grip facing the sky. It was like a significantly smaller version of the twin blades the Vileblood held, only about a single foot in length, four inches of which were dedicated to the grip, eight to the blade. It lacked a guard, though the black leather-wrapped hilt was bottomed with a heart-shaped pommel made from silvery metal. The sheath itself was adorned like those of Aurum and Argentum both, fabricated from hardened black leather and reinforced - while simultaneously embroidered - by metal.[/i] "I hope this will fulfill your needs."

  • [i]Oh, how the combination of weaponry would prove useful in the battles to come, Irina thought. She would allow her left hand to take the sheaths of the two swords, her right hand left free after the movement in the case that she would take the dagger as well. Though, Astra's words would prove true: she would need some time to adapt and train with the two newly acquired weapons. Hopefully, Aurum and Argentum didn't mind. And if they did.. well, running with only the dagger, assuming that it was just as godly, was an option too.[/i] "When could I possibly train with the two swords, though? Preferably with you, too. The people here would lead armies just to acquire such tools. Although it would be practice, I'm not taking that chance, even if Aurum and Argentum deny them and go blunt." [i]"Go blunt" was the simplest that Irina could put it, concerning Astra's own warning about the two weapons. At the suggestion of keeping them together, Irina would simply nod, nothing more. Though the knife was.. interesting. She figured that Astra had much more kept away within her inventory. She would have to thank the angel, somehow..[/i] [i]Well, we know how that'll end up.[/i]

    "'Go blunt'?" [i]The angel giggled mirthfully, her now empty hands drawing her longsword off of her back, slender digits wrapping around the grip, elegantly pulling it out of its barebones sheath, left hand slipping off to her side after. With a quick thought and a twist of her right wrist, the blade started falling apart, metal turning to ash and fluttering away in the wind. More and more of the blade fell away until, at last, Astra held something more akin to the sword she usually held, rather than the massive longsword. Their four feet made them lengthier than Irina's new twin swords , blade and hilt both longer to make up for the woman's height: three-and-a-half feet for the blade, half a foot for the grip. The dull grey metal shone with blood-red runes and symbols, while the grip was wrapped in rust brown leather, ending with a heart-shaped pommel. The usual.[/i] "No, no, they will not go blunt if they reject their wielders... As you might be thinking, they are conscious - the blades think and feel - and as such, if one were to anger them, they will shear apart the poor soul's very being without hesitation or pause. Now then, draw them, sweet lady, for there is no better way to earn your swords' trust by using them. I want you to give me all you have and more -- show me what you are made of!" [i]D-D-DUEL.[/i]
