[hackberrydragon]

Posted: May 3
From: EnoT

Seeing as we're from different times and places (at least that's what I think), I'd like to ask if anyone can tell me anything about this sword. (see enclosed attachment)

It just showed up in my room today, stuck in a stone. I also might need some help getting it out. Any suggestions will be appreciated. Thanks.

huh that's weird
everyone's having random stuff show up at their temples today

[hackberrydragon]

I noticed.
But I don't know if I'd pick this sword over suddenly getting a cat. Or a giant bird.

[ At least a sword won't poop everywhere. ]

[shortnsweet]

yeah a sword's no where near as cool as suddenly having a pet!
do you know why it's stuck in a rock?

[hackberrydragon]

Sheryl has a few cats now. I'd worry if a dog or something equally dangerous suddenly showed up.
As for the rock I can only guess it's some sort of Arthurian reference. Like the sword in the stone.

[shortnsweet]

huh
well that's kinda unfair
why give you a sword if you can't use it?

[wadoichimonji]

Break the stone in half.

[hackberrydragon]

Easy for you to say.
Want to give me a hand? I'll probably have to ditch the rock.

[wadoichimonji]

I will help you break it!

[hackberrydragon]

Thanks Zoro. o(_ _;o)
Do you think we should move it out first? It'll be difficult if we have to clean up rock shards from my room.

[galactically]

why is there even a rock in your room?? IT'S SO BIG

[Because Eno lives with her, of course she's going to notice it]

[hackberrydragon]

I DON'T KNOW
I mean it's not like I asked for it! I don't even know whose sword this is and why it's in a rock!

[ Please don't come into his room there's manga and boxers around. ]

[galactically]

keep the sword and throw the rock away! problem solved!

[But what if one of her kittens is in the room? WHAT IF...]

[hackberrydragon]

I was going to keep the sword provided I get it out of the rock in the first place.
But it's kind of stuck. (」ﾟヘﾟ)」

[toremainbehind]

How's it going with trying to get the sword out?

[hackberrydragon]

Zoro and I figured we should get the rock out of my room and out to the courtyard first. I don't want to find pebbles in my bed for the next two weeks.

Does the sword look familiar to you by any chance?

[toremainbehind]

That would be a good idea. It'd be a pain to clean up.

But no, it doesn't.

[hackberrydragon]

Sheryl said she was going to give me and Zoro extra gym duty if we made a mess (」ﾟДﾟ)」
So we're trying to keep it as neat as possible too.

Thanks anyway.

[very_goodman]

I can come over and give it a try if you want.

[hackberrydragon]

We're okay! Zoro and I are going to move the rock out front. If you want to come over and take a look at the sword, that would help too.

I'm trying to see if it looks familiar to anyone or if anybody can tell where or when it comes from.

[very_goodman]

Couldn't hurt to have another set of eyes on it, I guess. Dunno how much help I could really be, though.

[hackberrydragon]

You never know. Besides, you look like a guy who's seen this sort of stuff.
It kind of looks like a cosplay prop now that I think about it.
Maybe you know something I don't.

[disciplineking]

A weapon is useless if it can't be used. Throw it out.

[hackberrydragon]

Sure but I have this feeling I shouldn't.
Maybe if I got a better look at it, it might end up useful. Σ(-᷅_-᷄๑)

[disciplineking]

It's not my reputation as a warrior that's at stake.

By all means, die because you're clinging to something that can't be used.

[hackberrydragon]

I'm not going to use it.
Not yet at least.
I can't even pull it out of its sheath.
But it just feels right, you know?
The weight, the size, everything.
