Fears

After Grulm's words ended, everyone stepped forward eagerly to choose their weapons. However, Orion was surprised to see that no one picked the large knife or axe, despite their presence among the other weapons. Even the daughter from the village chief's messenger, who went first, followed by Gorg and Ursa, decided to skip the spear, axe, and knife. Instead, they all opted for either a machete or a cutlass.

As Orion watched them, he couldn't help but nod in agreement. After all, Grulm's words had made it clear that they needed weapons that could cut through the tough Vylkr vines without getting too close. Moreover, it was apparent that none of them knew how to wield a spear or whether it would even be useful in this situation. Therefore, choosing a cutlass or machete, which were long enough to provide distance and precision, was a wise decision.
