Talien takes the axe a and begins to polish and clean it, he also begins to talk, not directly to you just in general. Better to have a clean and maintained weapon than one that might fail you in battle. When your life depends on it and you pull out a dirty rusted weapon, it will be more likely to fail you. Before returning the axe he traces a finger over the red gem inlaid into it.
Meepo chirps, "Arxius... does Meepo need clean bow, or shield? Will Meepo's weapons fail if he doesn't keep clean like Talien says?"

Not someone. I don't think anyone in the group is evil. Naive maybe but not evil.
No. My glaive spoke to me yesterday. It says its name is Eldenser. It offered me power, but it basicaly said I needed to think for myself than simply believe what gods' agents told me. It asked me if I had proof that Torm was good and just.
I asked what it wanted from me in exchange for this power. The response was that it expected nothing but for me to use it with my own judgement.

Talien is slightly surprised by this as last time this did not occur. His eyes turn green briefly and then back to blue, he hands the axe back to Grom and says, If you ever wish to sell this axe, I would like to buy it. It is very different from the weapons we have in my realm and I have not seen one like it here as of yet. Do you know who made it? Can they make one for me?

Your brain says “Glaive” and “Eldenser...” but you trip over your own tongue when you try to say the two words aloud and they come out of your mouth as unintelligible gibberish.

OOC - is the 8 hours of the spell duration not up by now? I just assumed it was.
If we're saying that it is still within the 8 hour window, then I think it should be "No. My glaive spoke to me yesterday. It says its name is a;lsdjflk. It offered. . ."
I offer that based on the wording of his Suggestion - Eldenser considers himself separate from the Glaive. He Suggested "Do not mention me, nor trade your glaive until you have scrutinized yourself and Torm." (my empahsis). Shouldn't I be able to say the word "Glaive"? If he considers himself and the glaive as the same thing, wouldn't he have said "don't mention me or trade me until..."
Or maybe everything after "it says its name is al;flajfjla;" is gibberish since clearly the entitly is what is telling me things and not the glaive.

The spell's effects have not faded yet, probably two hoursish left. Sure, you can say "glaive" I concur with your reasoning. But, as soon as you try to mention him by name your words turn to gibberish... you're right he's the one talking to you, not the blade (where he resides).

Argg. Go get Grom as well please.
"Umm.. okay... be right back." Corkie returns to the others and whispers to Grom, "Alten is in the next room... he is acting very strangely... will you come speak with him please?"

But if you wish to have your items cleaned you should ask Talien, he will gladly help you, I am sure of that." Arxius says as she finishes eating from her ration pack. "Make sure you take the time to eat before we head out."
