Dimitri was wandering down one of many halls in Stormhold Castle. He had a couple of bells to kill between his squire trainings. He was considering possibly getting himself an improved sword. Isurian Steel was supposed to be the best around. Maybe he could wield two swords, but he didn't feel confident in being able to handle that. He was still training in his shield and was very reliant on it. But he could at least check out the merchandise. He didn't know if he wanted the same type of sword or something new. He figured he would ask the professionals as he neared Sultros Blades.
He stepped into the dimly lit store. He walked over to a collection of show swords, trying to pick out a style. His master used a gladius, he used a simple long sword. There were so many types to choose from. He didn't even choose his initial weapon. It was handed to him and he used it. He'd never had to pick out something so amazingly similar yet so vastly different.
