Hey, everyone! This is Ruby Rose! Listen, I had a rather... odd idea. I don't know how it's gonna pan out and all, but hear me out!

I know they gave us all this super-cool magic and all that, but not all of us can really fight. So, I was thinking that maybe I could try to fix that! I saw we can start businesses and I was thinking maybe I can start up a place so combat lessons can be given!

Now, I know that I'm not the best fighter here - my sister Yang was the one who used her fists and my other friends had swords and I use a large scythe and I REALLY hate using my own fists - but I wanna give everyone a chance not to be completely helpless. Give a few pointers, show them how to make weapons - it was totally a thing back home - the works!

But... am I doing too much? Thinking too hard? I wanna help out others who can't fight yet...

Greetings, Ruby Rose. My name is Kamisato Ayaka.

In a case like this, I do not think there is something as "too much". We all have much to learn, and if you are able to help those who are interested in learning more? Then I see nothing wrong with it.

I imagine you already have quite a lot of topics to start with. The basics of combat is simple enough, but making weapons is quite challenging!

What is it that you do where you are from?

[silver_eyes_rose]

Hi, Ayaka! Call I call you "Ayaka"? You can just call me "Ruby".

I'm glad you think what I'm planning is good. I really do think we need all the help we can get here. And weapon making is something we're taught when we're beginning our training!

I'm a Huntress. We're meant to protect our world from creatures known as Grimm.

[mistsplitter]

Yes, of course. I shall call you Ruby, then.

It is taught to you from the beginning? Then, how long would it take to finish making a weapon? And is everyone in your profession required to make their own?

Hehe. I have more questions underway.

[silver_eyes_rose]

Oh, I would say a couple of days for a simple weapon. Most weapons where I come from are a combination of both close and long range. Usually with guns. And, yes, they are. They’re an extension of ourselves!

Oh, if you have more questions, ask away!

[mistsplitter]

I do know a thing or two about blacksmithing, but I cannot imagine making my own weapon. Huntresses must be so talented! It is such a difficult feat!

Now, what exactly are these creatures of Grimm?

[silver_eyes_rose]

Oh, boy. Grimm.

They’re soulless creatures that feed off on negative emotions. They can sense those emotions and head towards them if they’re strong enough.

[mistsplitter]

I see... Then all the more that peace must be obtained all areas, no?

[silver_eyes_rose]

Oh, very much so, yes.

[mistsplitter]

Are there many of you? Huntresses?
