*Takes a step backward toward the wall, clearly wanting to stay as far out of the path of your hands as possible*
You were pretty close then? If it affects you so much.

@Legend Begins

We are.
*Continues forward*
As far as immediate family goes anyway.

How’s your... work-life balance? You just started, so it’s probably hard to say.

@Legend Begins

Right now I feel more liberated than I have in ages.
*Approaches a metal bulkhead door that is sealed in our path. I plant one hand on each half of the door and pull the halves away from each other, forcibly opening the door*
And for the record, my family is great. I appreciate you asking because I've spent so long keeping myself detached from thinking about them super hard.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Okay... What’s your family like?

@Legend Begins

Wow. Talk about a crazy 180.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

I don’t. How’s the weather around here?

@Legend Begins

Hot and dry. But it doesn’t have to be that small, come on.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

*Grabs onto the edge and pulls myself up to my stomach, shifts my weight to my knees, and stands up*
We have time.

@Legend Begins

Long as you don’t mind small talk for a while.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

We can look if you want. Call it a sword from a faraway land.

@Legend Begins

It might take a while, but we can.
*Tosses the sheet of metal I’m holding up onto the ship and into the hallway on the floor and leaps back up into it*

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Have you found any at all?

@Legend Begins

I did early on, when I was worried about self defense and was unsure if I’d find anyone unfriendly.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Will they even be able to forge it?

@Legend Begins

I don’t know. Maybe.
*Flips it over and looks at the other side*
I suppose we could look through an armory to see if there are any bladed weapons already lying around, but I stopped looking for those months ago. Not sure if this one even has an armory intact.

Myriad Reality

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

Is that all you're going to get?

@Legend Begins

For now. Don’t want to lug too much back. If it ends up being super valuable after appraisal, I don’t want to flood the market immediately and run someone dry.

<Snipped quote by Magnanimity>

The boss has a workshop, but I'm not much of a handyman, so I never go in there. If you think it'll sell for a lot, we should take it to the big city, and one of their smiths will probably buy it.

@Legend Begins

I think it would probably sell for enough for me to buy some real clothes. If it comes up short, it’s not like there’s a shortage.
