Who: Miah and anyone else!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: Aboard the Huntress, if you really want it
When: Now

[Miah is looking into the camera, back to wearing her full plate armor to address the fleet.]

Good evening. I seek any in this fleet capable of smithing. It has been too long since I have held a sword, and I like not the feel of the so-called 'weapons' the Atroma have provided us. If any are capable of crafting a blade for me, or the tools and materials with which I may forge my own, I would be grateful. I lack the means to pay with coin, but I may offer payment in the form of labor or trade.

Thank you for listening.

Miah Lanbatal. I currently reside within the Huntress. It is an honor, Lady Pearl.

['lady?' That's a slight flush.] 'Pearl' is just fine.

But yes, if we ever do find suitable weapons, I wouldn't mind having a sparring partner.

As you wish. A sparring partner would help me as well, lest I rust from inactivity. I look forward to it.

[and she's smiling at that]

It's always a nice change of pace. It's hard to learn anything new from fighting my own shadow.

How long have you been here?

Your own shadow?

[She has to take a moment to think about that, ears twitching as she tries to remember.]

I believe it has been about a moon. I have not been unarmed for this long since I was but a girl.

[not terribly long then, but]

I know how you feel. [in the general sense of the word] It's infuriating, honestly.

Oh, I can create a copy of myself. It can come in handy, at times.

... You possess many interesting abilities. Are you some manner of shinobi?

[a what? That sounds like something from one of Steven's ninja cartoons.]

Not...that I know of. I'm a Gem. [which might explain the thing on her forehead]
