"perhaps the combined weapon would contain the traits of all three?"

"So what are you actually proposing then Grayson? the blade is bound to me and I feel like you would be as ken to give this up as I am the blade"

"I don't know Duncan. There is little love lost between us, I doubt you want to see that blade in my hands. I have little to no resources to offer you in exchange anyway, only a piece of starfallen iron."

"youve had that star fallen iron since I met you down south, and it's nothing personal I just believe that the symbol the Kingsword represents shouldn't be in the hands of the faith. Current events cant be misinterpreted if the situation was worded the wrong way by those with loud voices..."

"Aye and I've never been able to do with that lump of rock." Gray chuckles to himself quietly. "I am a member of the faithful, but at this exact moment, there is no one safer to put your trust, the nobles can be corrupted, you've seen the evidence of that as well as I.
I'm not saying that the faithful are infallible, we still make mistakes but the Mithrans are trying to wipe out the faiths and cut us off from the Gods. I am asking you for your trust, let me reunite the sword, remake the blade that was broken and allow it to bring light in these dark times."

Duncan raises an eyebrow and his face becomes stern, he finishes his drink and without changing tone or volume says "Were it a religious relic I would not hesitate but it is not, I trust the faith I might not see eye to eye with everything they do but I know the importance of the faith and of course nobles can be corrupted as any born on Arda but we're not talking about them we are talking about me, and who am I? I am a Feudal Knight unbiased to the Gods while I honouring them all. I have worked and shed blood for everything I have earned while asking for nothing. My concern is with the people. What is best for them and how best to protect them regardless of the personal cost I have never tried to do anything else or said that I would. And for that reason I can't give you the blade however I will offer you a compromise"

"I pay to have that lump made into something practical for you?"

"The iron has more use being crafted in armour. It wouldn't be a whole lot of use as a weapon."

"In all honesty, I don't know. The pieces individually are all powerful in their own right, I do not see it as a diservice to use them individually. There is another avenue of enquiry that I wish to pursue before I make a final decision whether to use my piece or not. I will let you know when that is concluded."
Gray stands and makes to leave, pausing briefly to pick up his gear and in case Duncan has anything else to say.
