[It's Yuan Zelos is focusing on, Yuan and the promise Zelos made to him months before. He's never had a reason to care much about dying because he never had anyone worth living for. Yuan has become that, and not only did Zelos walk right into an ambush, but Yuan had to come and save him.
... Yuan had to come and save him.
For the first time, Zelos sees the giant weapon, and he frowns.] Where'd you get a sword...?
[Dim confusion is still written all over his face and peppered through his voice, but at least his voice hasn't grown any fainter.
The guard snaps out of his reverie and comes forward. If it were anyone else, the guard would have deferred to Yuan's obvious skill and gone quickly to get back-up; since Yuan's a half-elf, he can't be an ally, and securing Zelos is the priority. The next thing Zelos knows, a vaguely familiar face without blue hair has swum into his field of vision.]
Master Zelos, can you move?
Why's he got a sword?
[Zelos's mind is skipping. The guard spares Yuan a glance before answering.] I don't know. Can you move?

Where can I get a sword like that?
