Synopsis

The chapter focuses on the group acquiring new equipment at the Lord's Workshop, with a particular focus on a unique custom-made shield. Ellen expresses a desire to purchase a ballista, but is denied due to kingdom law, leading to her obtaining a repurposed crossbow. This situation prompts discussions within the group, as they wonder why Ellen, who appears incapable of magic, is with them, questioning her true background and combat capabilities. Ultimately, they are given a heavy shield matching their requested specifications.
