Deal

"This sword is not bad," said Elder Marth as he held the blade that Damian had made.

Damian had given it a plain brown hilt and although he hadn't spent any time on decorating or imprinting the sword with any patterns to make its appearance better, he had made sure to follow the manual to the best of his ability.

"But it isn't good either and is a basic sword that would only be useful to be trained with, and not used in actual combat as it is too frail and brittle" added Elder Marth.

Damian wasn't disappointed by what Elder Marth said in the slightest and was proud of what he was able to make after putting his all into its forging.

His hands had cuts and blisters from the hammering and forging of the blade, but Damian's hands had many scars on them already, especially his fingers, after he had trained in the bow and cut his hand on the thin and sharp bowstring many times.
