-Well once you head down-
-The lights come on, and well the entirety of under the compound is a giant armory-
-Guns line the walls, just like the ones you saw the people walking by you earlier carrying-
-Including the heavy ones-
-There appears to be some rocket launchers and grenades-
-Armor as well comparable to what you saw earlier-
-Same coloring too, honestly there is enough stuff down here to arm a couple hundred-
-And it goes beyond that too Six of these guys slumber in the corner next to a backpack
, I don't think I need to clarify the color matches any more-
Ren: Please don't disturb the kami....
Six: ...god damn. That is a lot of guns...
-Hearing Ren's concern, Six treads carefully into the armory, taking a look at all of the weapons contained that manage to be advanced yet backwards at the same time-
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."-The armor itself is very basic longram, the construction techniques match with WWI, although the materials used are well beyond that.... in a really strange mixture-
Ren: Part of our duty is to arm the Ashigaru... other then...
-she motions to the drones-
Nothing in here is used by us..... we keep ours elsewhere.... feel free to take any thing you wish.
Six: Thanks for the offer. But I've got my own munitions.
I'll keep these in mind if I run out of ammo.
-The Spartan takes one of the bolt-actions, inspecting the weapon-
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."-Well six, the actual weapon here is quite advanced, it seems to be some kind of magnetic plasma driver, and you get the feeling getting shot by one of these things would really hurt-
-The problem is that it is jurryriged in such a way that you get the feeling that whoever built it has no idea how the thing actually works at a level beyond "this bit makes shit hurt"-
-The power feeding mechinizim is absolutely atrocious, it is literally a magazine full of advanced batteries and a manualy operated bolt and extractor that feeds them into the device then removes them, with the triger being something that was simply riged up as a mechanical way to complete the electrical circuit-
-The end result is a very advanced barrel, on a very primitive stock and feed system-
-Longram what in particular are you looking for?-

Six: Jesus Christ, I... what the hell even...
A bolt action rifle. This design has to be... what, 600 years old? 700? Back home, anyways. And it still uses "bullets", but the cartridges... they're... are those microfusion batteries? Then they need to be discharging all of their energy through this barrel and... the barrel looks like rails. Magnet rails. This is a man-portable, manual-action MAC gun that shoots plasma. How the fuck...
-The SPARTAN turns the weapon over a few more times, before looking to Ren-
Six: This is standard issue, right?

"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."Six: Why not?
-to Longram- A little, but... the fact they even have access to the resources necessary to issue microfusion power packs to their soldiers as ammunition... if we had those type of resources maybe the SPARTANs wouldn't have been necessary.
"Seven is here too, dressed like the concept of choosing clothes that look nice together was an arcane secret far beyond their grasp."-Ren stops when she notices Six has grabed some more-
-She goes to say something, but then decides its better not to, he is a guest-
-And continues-
-When they reach the courtyard she puts the body armor on one of the bamboo dummies and steps away-
Rem: I.... don't know, its the same metal the precursors used though.

Six: Yeah. It's why we lost most of our engagements. We were equal on ground level, but all the Covenant had to do was destroy spaceborne defenses and then they could bombard the planet from high orbit.
-Checking for a second to see if the weapon is loaded, Six readies the rifle, carefully aims, and pulls the trigger-

Hathor: I am a cloud giant. We tend to stick to ourselves, so I'm not surprised you are unfamiliar with our kind.
