[Meliantha tends to wander through the training areas, looking for interesting things. And this certainly was interesting.]

We have them... just not terribly reliable yet. Almost as dangerous to the holder as the target, and the priesthood that created them keeps the information secret. A stray flame, a fire-blast, a dragon's sneeze, and.... well.

[She looks at the rifle.]

It's a handsome piece of equipment. I'm getting training in these weapons, just because as long as I'm here, I should learn as much as possible, but I don't consider myself sufficiently skillful yet, and then I need to learn to maintain them properly to reach what I consider competent enough to carry one into battle.

I'm Meliantha. Pleased to meet you.
