Kyle looks at Giselle as she speaks. He takes in the whole picture and despite her unnatural skin color and the harshness of her attire and attitude he cannot help but like what he sees. He watches with interest the exchange between Giselle and Zelith. He than looks her directly in the eyes stating, “This is all very new to me and I’m not familiar with the local flora and fauna. I was attacked by three green skinned very ugly brutes. If Tiagar says they were orcs, I will just have to take his word for it. I admit there was some luck involved. Where the road ends and the ground beyond meet don’t match up. They rushed headlong blindly and stumbled over the line of transition. One was carrying this blade which he dropped. I recognized a threat and retrieved it before it did. The other two were armed much larger and cruder made weapons. The blade cut through them with extreme ease, there was no resistance at all. It only took one cut to kill each.”<br/><br/>After pausing for a moment, Kyle admits, “While I am a trained and experienced soldier, the sword is something I don’t have much experience with. Swords are not used in standard combat on our world, but this sword is remarkably easy to use, almost like acts on its own. I’m just the wielder. If you’re suggesting sparring, I’m not sure that is a good idea. As I said it is unnaturally sharp and I’m not sure I can control it well enough to prevent you from getting a serious injury. I am trained and experienced with knives, but do not currently have anything with me. It has never been necessary to carry weapons in town here before.” He points to the large hole made by the discharge of the large revolver and says, “Our standard weapons are like the one which has made that hole. They do considerable damage at range, if we have to defend the town it is weapons like that which will be used by myself and others. There are many different models and styles, and I am an expert with most. I have a small collection at my home. The armory should have hundreds of full military grade weapons, probably not the newest models but still functional.”<br/><br/>Tiagar interjects, “The sword is a very powerful enchanted elven blade, but nobody knows the full extent of its enchantments, so it is unknown what it is capable of. It has already demonstrated a new power tonight. It seems that when Kyle is in direct contact with it he can communicate in whatever language he needs to. This is a function that has never been seen throughout the known history of the blade. It only works for select individuals of its choosing.”<br/><br/>Kyle says, “If you still wish to test me, I guess we could go outside. But first you must try some ice cream despite what it looks like,” with a broad grin on his face. Turning to the wizard he says, “A wall will probably be a good idea, but that is something that will have to be discussed with the mayor and the city engineers as there are outlying farms to consider. I’m sure you have also noticed that we Americans like our ‘elbow room’ and the town is much too spread out to properly fortify the town as a whole.”
