[Comparing a shard to materia might not be too far off, actually. Is there a life materia or maybe a creation one? If so, shards would probably be the most like them.]

If you want something to protect your sword permanently--and I would recommend that since it means so much to you--then I would look for someone to place actual protective spells or runes on it. Shard magic cannot be used constantly as it will drain energy just like any other skill will and then you will need to rest and recharge. You don't want to leave your sword unprotected during times when your shard energy is low.

[ Well, there's Holy and Meteor. Zack, unfortunately, knows nothing about them.

The advice, however, is helpful! ]

I might do that, then.

[ It would make him feel a whole lot better about protecting his sword. ]

My teacher would probably kill me if I broke his family's sword.

I can direct you to a couple of good enchanters who I know in Caer Glaem. I've worked with them before and always been happy with their work.

[Zack's sentiment about not wanting to damage or break such an important family heirloom has Diarmuid nodding in agreement.]

If my weapons were breakable in any way other than my own hand, I would be worried too. They were gifted to me by my father and waited a long time for me to become great enough to wield them. I would not want anything to happen to them.

[ He smiles a little. ]

I'd appreciate it.

[ The Buster is one of the few things he has to remind him of home, of the life he left behind. He would be devastated if it broke. ]

You'll have to show them to me sometime.

[Diarmuid nods.]

It's not a problem. We can discuss it more when you get back to the island. I am going to probably be spending most of the month, if not here, than nearby. We will have plenty of time.

Sounds good.

I'll see you when I get back.
