15 Simple Blade

Following the man, the two were surprised to find out that this room was as large as the last. The room was split into two by a large polished counter, one half occupied by well-organized displays of various weaponry, sets of armor, and shields. The other, occupied by a large forge, a few other men hard at work, hammering down on red-hot poles of iron or shaping sheets of them into shields and armor.

The two walked up to the counter so that they could discuss the transaction, but their eyes wandered, looking at some of the fancier weapons on display. Zack's eye was caught particularly by a sword being displayed on the counter, the blade long and simple, but the hilt complex, covered in five gemstones that seemed to glow with energy.

The man, who had already gone behind the counter to assume the role of the store clerk, noticed his gaze, and grinned.
