Fortunately, Jazdia seemed to notice Vesemir's lack of interest to what she was saying quite quickly and promptly made sure the elf scholar would pay proper attention at what Miwa was saying. With a discreet glance and nod of thanks towards Jazdia, Miwa silently thanked Vesemir as he gave his consent for them to start the purification of the defiled rooms the curator mentioned, while also presenting an apparently, recently made runestone to aid them. Undoubtedly, already a fruit of Vesemir's research of the artifacts at the gallery. While it was beyond any doubt that the Lich was a threat that would better be dealt with, the discussion started by Verdant's comment brought very valid points. Taking down the necromancer would be undeniably dangerous, especially if he had already established a base somewhere, possibly getting stronger than before. [color=6ecff6]"It might seem to be a daunting task now, but I am sure it might prove to become more feasible as we know more about the necromancer's powers and how to counter them. Purifying the room the lich left behind might seem like a menial task, but it might prove to be important for us to better understand it's powers."[/color] Miwa said, with a kind smile as she watched Verdant, excitedly watching as Vesemir enchanted her weapon before she walked away with Jazdia once Vesemir was finished. Miwa waited patiently as each group member's weapons were enchanted. Most were thankful or excited for having their weapons enhanced, but Miwa felt a deep weight in Rezello's words as he handed his sword to Vesemir. Rezello was carrying a heavy burden in his heart. While the desire for vengeance was an understandable one, it was a goal that often left one empty once it was over... And depending on how long one was consumed by revenge... It might be hard to see anything else in life after the only reason for them to live disappeared. When her turn finally arrived, Miwa approached Vesemir with her weapon in hand. [color=6ecff6]"I know it might be a bit presumptuous of me to try and explain artifacts to a scholar such as yourself but... the Ama Matoi isn't just a weapon. It is also a sacred artifact for the temple, one passed down from miko to miko for generations. Despite being it's current wielder, I know no better of how exactly it works or how it was created than it's previous wielder... I am not sure of what effects engraving a rune could have on it... Besides, I am not sure what the elders of the temple would do to me if they found out the Ama Matoi was engraved with strange runes. If possible, could you just enhance it's effects without inscribing any new rune?"[/color] Miwa asked a bit shyly and embarrassed, not sure how Vesemir would receive her request. [/color]
