Rain couldn't help but find the selection of weapons forged by Maxime and the other survivors a bit weird. The limitation of not being able to transform the dark metal into any desired form meant that the choice of medieval-style weapons was somewhat acceptable, though. Spears, shields, armor, a javelin, a crossbow—these weapons seemed like relics from a bygone era, and Rain wondered about the reasoning behind such choices.
The inclusion of a javelin, in particular, caught Rain's attention. While it could be a formidable weapon in the right hands, its practicality against the colossal first dragons raised questions. Unless the user possessed superhuman strength to hurl it with enough force to pierce the dragons' defenses, and some means to retrieve it afterward, the javelin seemed like an odd choice.
