Maxon shrugged again. “Heh, maybe not, but daggers are good versatile weapons; unlike a sword, you can strike with great precision at your opponent’s weak spots. They can also be thrown if necessary, and offer a great deal of utility outside of combat.

Now don’t get me wrong; I’m not ditching my glaive and sword for gods’ sake! But it will be a nice thing for me to have, unlike my bow….”

“But Maxon!” Caelia now spoke up. “You’ve had that bow since we left Abbanor, and you’ve trained so much with it! I think it would be a big waste if you got rid of it” she cautioned.

“Well, look at it like this; if I wanted to shoot someone, or something; I would have to drop my glaive, go through the painstaking motion of drawing my bow from my shoulder, nock an arrow and then draw and aim. In which time, my target would have already fled, taken cover, or rushed me. If the latter happened, I would then have to drop my bow, and go for my sword, since my glaive would already be on the ground.

All in all, it wouldn’t make much sense for me to have a bow, when I have all of these other weapons. Plus, I’m really tired of feeling like a human pack mule, and would like to lighten my load” he concluded.
