There in the back a chest. Ha! Nearly leaping to it Mikka threw open the lid with a thud that made him cringe and he quickly glanced over his shoulder hoping no one noticed the noise. He pulled out the chest plate and chain greaves holding them up for a quick inspection he had to admit he'd seen better armor on a fresh to the field farmhand but it was more than nothing. Pulling the plate over his head noticed the dryness and cracking in the leather holding it together, one good blow in the right spot would rip the plating from the leather if he didn't get a chance to oil it down at least a little. The chain leggings weren't much better they were rusted together in several spots pulling and even tearing at his pants. It would take several hours to get every ring to move and shift properly again.<br/><br/>The leather strips at the bottom of the chest were useful, it was more likely whoever had put all this in the chest had used the leather strips to protect the wood from being beat up to much whenever the armor was removed and replaced. The stone shards were something else all together. After close examination his hopes heightened just a little, these were obsidian shards! Arrowheads would be the best use of it all but he had nothing for a shaft let alone a bow or string. The larger pieces could make for a short sword but there was the catch. Obsidian was easily the sharpest stone shards you could acquire but they were as brittle as glass. One good blow and the length of obsidian in his hand would shatter into a hundred pieces. That just meant he had to strike first if it came to that. Taking what he could confidently carry and still maneuver he took the longest piece of obsidian an the narrowest piece of leather and wrapped one end as a makeshift grip. It would do no good to slice his own hand open trying to defend himself. Though he still wished he had his flask with him...<br/><br/>Comfortable that he could at least put a decent fight now if it came to it he stepped out into the larger cavern.<strong>Ho, there. What is the meaning of dropping me into this pit darkness?</strong>He said to the group in general.
