It's probably meant as a method of keeping the peace. Participants aren't supposed to fight each other. But it doesn't account for training or potential future threats. We're able to protect you if it comes to that, but it'd be better if you could do more than hide if something went wrong.
Only six of you to protect forty-three of us does seem a little unfair...
[so, yes! yona also agrees that they should be able to do more than run and hide.]
A lot of us seem pretty resourceful, so I'm sure we'll figure out some way to help if something does happen, but it'd be good to have properly-forged weapons, too. Just in case.
Mhm. He said he'd teach me a lot of things while we were here... archery is just one of them. He seems like he knows how to make a lot of different things.
Some people are like that. Good at making things. [ kind of stating the obvious there, wolf, buddy. ] And if he's willing to provide you with the bow and arrows for free, then that works out.
I feel pretty lucky. [good thing she ran into horse dad day one!] It will be really interesting to see what goes into making a bow. One of my friends from home used to make arrowheads, but I've never seen the whole bow get made before.
...I grew up lucky. My father always gave me anything I ever wanted... beautiful clothes, jewelry, even my own villa on the palace grounds. And I never thought about anything except for my own idle happiness.
[she looks down.]
There were people out there who needed help that... we weren't giving them. And I never once stopped to think about any of that. When I think about the kind of person I was back then, it makes me very... frustrated.
[ wolf twirls the branch in their hand That They Still Had before handing it back to yona ]
If you don't experience it for yourself, it's not easy to see the truth of the world. [ it's idle, and they take a step back. ] Everyone gets their own wake up call in life. You faced yours head on. So don't look back on who you were. Focus on who you want to be.

[ that you still don't know which of us this is delights me. wolf nods, considering, and... ]
I'll see about getting you a training one. But maybe there'll be some popping up later.
no subject
[PLEASE BE NICE TO ME, I'M REALLY STUPID AND ALSO EXHAUSTED.]
...that would be great! I'll keep looking for one, too, but it doesn't seem like there are many weapons anywhere we can get to right now.

[ hm did she tell them that? ]
no subject
...I'm not going to get in trouble for taking it, am I?
no subject
Not with me. [ they shrug ] Like I said, I'd rather you have something to defend yourself. Never know what can happen.
[ they gonna say why they know she took a knife? no ]
no subject
I'm going to take it to Archer to have him help me make a bow. That way I won't fall out of practice with my archery, either.
no subject
Archery, huh. [ hm. ] Does he make arrows, too? Bow won't be of much use without them.
no subject
anyway, she nods.]
