Power of runes

Since both sides had finished forging, the only thing left to do now was to test the blades that they had created to see which side had forged the better blade.

But since I had crafted a dagger with runes, it wasn't suitable to do the same test as before.

Testing the blades against each other wouldn't show the true power of the blade.

Especially since both of them were made of mithril.

Mithril weapons would become stronger when magic was injected into them, so just testing them against each other wasn't a good measure of how good these weapons were.

So instead, we settled on the armour test.

This was testing the weapons against armour prepared.

This would be considered a waste of good armour, but the armour had been prepared by the dwarves in the first place. The armour used were failed products, so it didn't matter if they were cut up.

But even if they were failed products…these were pieces of armour that were made of mithril.
