"Like mi new outfit, huh. Bit of a change fer me too. Been used
ta runnin all round ta battlefield. Won't be able ta do that in this
armor."

"See, I'm a jump in and bash them sort. Works ok, but I get bashed
a lot too. Way it goes, but it'd be nice ta get hurt a little less
often."

"So not so long ago I do this guy a favor and he offers me this
floatin shield. Just ta thing fer your big sword guy like me. I was
so happy."

"Then I starts ta think. He can instead offer me this full plate
that will protect as well as the magic shield, and some magic bracers,
and he still feels he owes me. That's a much better deal."

"I tain't never gonna be safe up front, but ya sees these here
scratches? Just got this armor and already it's prevented 2 big holes
in my hide. Don't think either woulda killed me, but they sure woulda
hurt. So guess, I'll be waddlin round ta battlefield in ta future."
