Everything has a soul, even objects and yet-to-be mature weapons. Recognizing this truth and treating a weapon as you would any valued ally transforms it. You might not see a change in its status and its power, to be sure. It doesn't work that way. You see the value in your own growth.

Aurolio couldn't say that what Future Skullius had taught him in the Empyrean Bosom earlier was new knowledge to all Arma Users. A swordman like Alaris could have said it all to his face and he still wouldn't have been compelled to take the teaching.
…But Future Skullius had a different voice. His presence made his words as permeable to all things as mana.
That was why Aurolio had broken his previous vision of strength and finally incorporated a weapon in his fighting style.
It was no ordinary weapon, though.
