Chapter 270: • Weapon Crafting

"Settle down, Students. Today we delve into one of the most important aspects of your journey as Bearers: Crafting your Enlightened Weapon."

The large room was filled with the low hum of chatter as Student Bearers shuffled to their seats. The Weaponry class had one of the highest numbers of Students and so the Course took place in a high, spacious, vaulted chamber.

The tall walls were filled with old weapons, some new — blades, bows, and staves of all sorts. Some of the weapons sampled even claimed to date back before the times of the Bearers.

At the front of the room, on an elevated pulpit, stood the Mystagogue, Jaelen Haragush. Though he was fairly young for a Mystagogue, he was an experienced and slightly grizzled Bearer himself, wearing a long coat that draped over his shoulders and a fancy tie.
