"A sword... stuck in a tree?" Sophie asked, warily. "That... sounds very strange. And not in a good way," she said, sounding worried. "What... kind of tree?"<br/><br/>Cedrik frowned, and took the sword, invoking an incantation for a moment, then gasped, and nearly dropped it. "This is... a very powerful weapon," he said. "I don't... I don't know what it can do, but it feels... dangerous," he said, hesitantly handing it back to her. "I wouldn't be any good with it, either, though... I could perform a ritual and reshape<em>you</em>to be able to use it."<br/><br/>Sophie was watching this exchange, as well. "I... could possibly use it? But something about it feels... off," she said.
