Say, Player, remember the Kromede's Flame necklace I gave you? What are you going to do with it?

Haven't thought about it yet? Well, did you know you can melt it down and compound it with the Longbow of the Judge to make a curiously strong arrow shooter?

Player: "But I don't have the Longbow of the Judge."

Yes, yes. You'll need to get it first. You'll need three things, actually.

The first is Kromede's Flame, which you already have. The second is a skilled and accomplished blacksmith...and that would be me, the legendary Ukon.

And the third and final item you'll need is the Longbow of the Judge. But you'll need to pry it from its owner's hands first.

Player: Accept.

No need to thank me, Player. I have the easy part in this transaction. You, on the other hand, have the hard part: getting the longbow.

You'll have to take it from Kromede the Corrupt at the Fire Temple in Asmodae. And she won't be too thrilled to see it go.

Player: "I wouldn't expect anything less."

I never said it would be a breeze to get the Longbow of the Judge, Player. But you seem to have kept all your limbs.

Now, hand over the Longbow and Kromede's Flame, and I'll get my anvil warmed up.

Player: "Here's everything you need."

Player, do you see these hands of mine? These hands are legendary!

These hands have made weapons for the governor of Sanctum! The Brigade Generals of our foreign legions! The...the....

Just get the Longbow of the Judge and Kromede's Flame, and I'll show you why I'm considered a legend!

Player: "I hope you're right!"

Sweet Lady Ariel! That was a lot of work! But I have finished what I set out to do.

Here, take your Kromede's Longbow. After all that work, I don't want to find this weapon in the used bin of some Shugo trader's tent, Player.
