[ Their saviour comes in the form of another member of the guild passing through. She tells them the particular style of weapon is a 'lance', though this one is built for thrashing and slashing rather than driving through. She says it's a weapon used by knights in a lot of old stories, to show how their hearts and weapons were pure and driven. It's not a throwing weapon or as light as the naginata.

Marco thanks her for the explanation, and his eyes sparkle when he turns back to Jean. ]

A knights weapon, Jean!

[rustyhonesty]

[Jean also thanks the very helpful native, looking at Marco beaming and smiling himself. Marco's excitement about it is very contagious.]

I heard, you dork. Definitely a weapon that should be provided by you.

[Never mind the fact Jean was actually a knight in Avalon. As he's thought before, Marco would have fit the role a lot better. Hence, the lance was fitting.]

Though, does that make me your knight, since you bestowed it on me?

[He's teasing, a little.]

[sunspotted]

Nah. I don't need protecting.

[ Marco shakes his head a little, a mirthful expression on his face. ]

Using it to protect other people, though - that sounds like something we could do.

[ That had been - well, Marco's dream, for the Military Police. Before he learned what they were like. ]

[rustyhonesty]

I was joking.

[Mostly. He does want to protect Marco, but he doesn't want to make it obvious like he was. At the same time, he knows Marco's skillful enough to fend for himself.

Cheerfully, he explains.]

Though, being someone's knight isn't always about protecting them specifically. It's also about protecting their people. My lord back in Avalon certainly didn't need a bodyguard, so my main duties were to protect his lands.

And do some very annoying quests for the king, I guess. Technically, I had two bosses.
