It had been a couple of hours since the school day had ended and Ky was currently in the weapons workshop. Standing before a table with multiple tools and his sword laying on top of it. Letting his upper body slump down, Ky placed one hand on his head and said,

"Why did I do that. There was no reason to do that, and it resulted in this!"

On the table lay his sword, the tip blunted and with multiple chips along the edge. Ky continued to stare at what had done as his internal instincts screamed at him. Suddenly, Ky felt a hand on his shoulder as he turned around to see a rather pretty woman with honey blonde hair and was wearing what appeared to be a maid outfit.

Once she had gained Ky's attention, the maid said,

"Are you alright! You've been standing there for quite some time."

Responding to the maid, Ky said,

"I'm fine. Just regretting a decision."

Peeking over his shoulder, the maid saw Ky's sword laying on the table and said,

"Oh, I see. May I ask how this came to be""

Turning around so he was full facing her, Ky said,

"Happened during a spar, I guess you could say I swung a little too hard."

Pausing for a couple of moments, something clicked in maids head as she said,

"You must have been in the duel earlier today, the one where one of the participants managed to break the others weapon. I had watched it earlier. "

With a disappointed sigh, Ky said,

"Yes, that would be me."

Crossing her arms over her legs, the maid said,

"What is there to be disappointed about? Your maneuver was rather impressive if I say so myself?"

Picking up his sword from the table, Ky held it along the bottom of the blade as he said,

"It's not that I'm disappointed with my performance, it's just the cost was too high for my liking. The damage I've done to the blade is concerning, and Cassandra is going to need a new sword as well."

Letting the maid inspect the blade for a little while longer, Ky put his sword back onto the table as the maid leaned closer to Ky and said,

"If you'd like I can help repair your blade, that is if you want it."

Now much closer together, Ky and the maid were looking into each others eyes. Trying not to look down, Ky could feel his cheeks at what he consider to be a "precarious" situation. Suddenly, the maid moved back as she placed both of her hands over her mouth and said,

"How rude of me, I haven't introduced myself," performing a quick curtsy, "my name is Rita Rossweisse. And I apologize for not telling you my name earlier"
