Chapitre 1030: The Lonely Mountain - Part 6

The long-spear-wielding men were forced to abandon their main weapon in favour of something smaller. It was only spear wielders like Verdant and Firyr who managed to keep what they normally wielded, for their length was far more appropriate for one-handed wielding.

It was Lasha's Blackthorn men that were hit the hardest. They were forced to replace their trusty spears with swords, and none of them looked too pleased about that fact. Oliver was put in a similar position, given his lack of a hand. He was forced to keep his sword sheathed whilst he held the shield. When he was close enough to his foes, he planned to discard it.

"Heavy enough for you?" Firyr grunted, seeing Oliver test the weight. "See, we Syndran's have the right idea about these things. If I were to wield a shield again, I damn well didn't expect it to be one of these pissin' Yarmdon pieces."
