Subject: �Purchases�

^The young woman steps into the store after tying her chestnut blood horse outside. She first goes to the swords, rumaging through them. After a bit of time, she pulls out an old, light sword. The hilt is gilded, covered in intricate designs died black, with a few small saphires, rubies, and diamonds upon, all surrounding one large, oddly light, voilet colored tanzinite. She remembers seeing the color of her eyes in a melted silver looking glass, and realizes the jewel was the same color. The blade is light-weight and smaller than normal swords, perfect for her use. Suddenly, rubbing away the grime of age, she sees the blueish coloring of the blade. With a shock, she realizes that the metal is made of star-metal, as was Excaliber! Picking it up by the hilt and, as gracefully as possibly, as she has had no training, swings it around. Feeling the fittingness, she rummages through the pile again, finally finding an old scabbard that matches the sword. After securing the sword and scabbard, she moves on to the daggers, finding, much to her delight, two small daggers of the same making as the sword. On to the bows and arrows, she finds a bow, expertly carven, covered with intricate designs. Finding twenty arrows covered with designs much the same as the bows's, and each with a feather at the end. Sifting through the packs she finds a plain black pack, adding that to her rapidly growing pile. Deciding against armor for her or her horse, she instead pruchases a pair of supple leather boots and gloves, a sturdy steel axe, a large leather skin with which to make a tent, and a peice of flint to make fire with. For the last thing, she buys a soft leather dress to wear instead of her old gown. Taking her many things to the man, she gives him most of her remaining coins. With that, she loads her mare up with the supplies and gallops off to the feilds...^
