Albert would interject, "But I'm a child, and so is the other boy in armor! Why are you sending us for such a task?!"

Crap, this is bad. Apparently (and by apparently, after Albert used some covert Charms to investigate), the ruler of the city was behind the Ruby Necklaces (which was obvious to someone with magical senses), there was a Spirit inside the city, and of course, the Sword was evidently an actual Artifact that can be used against them. And Albert, though he was tempted to reveal the full extent of his knowledge, was not totally foolish. Frowning, he looked to see which of this motley group was going to handle the blade, thus giving themselves away as a Heroic Mortal or even an Exalted. Looking at Aiden, he would slide over and whisper:

"Do not grab the sword. If what the Lady said was right, you can't use it. Or if you [i]can[/i], then you'd mark yourself as a target." Albert, being a TwilIght Caste taught by an older Solar, knew the basics of what Artifacts are; it did not hurt that he had some rough information from his Exaltation's own past incarnation. That and Mortals didn't carry magic weapons around for obvious reasons.
