For all its power, the Piece of Zikel just takes up space in your cube the way it is right now. It sounds harsh, but it's the truth.

Unlocking its full potential isn't something for us. We're not trained in the advanced ways of smithing required.

I do, however, know someone who is. I'm sure she'll be able to help you.

Player: "And that is...?"

Her name is Usener. You might have met her in Pandaemonium. She's a very well-known and talented smith.

With her talent, the Piece of Zikel will be the pick that plucks the Polearm's strings, creating the ultimate melody.

There is one small potential catch, though.

Player: "I knew it. What is it?"

From what I understand, this requires a precise process. It may become very expensive for you.

But Usener has a fair and honest reputation.

Now that you know everything, will you go to see her?

Player: Accept.

Very smart. You didn't strike me as the kind of Daeva who'd reject an opportunity like this.

The Piece of Zikel is well-known in smithing circles. Ah, I would love to see her face when she finds out you have it.

Please go to Pandaemonium at once. The sooner your power grows, the sooner you can put it to use for Asmodae.

Player: "Very true. I'm off!"

Is that...Athana's Polearm? And that... A Piece of Zikel?! Oh...Oh, Aion....

I'm going to be honest with you: almost all smiths would happily toss their mothers into Reshanta to get a chance to work with a Piece of Zikel.

The closest most get is a bunch of whispered rumors or drunken boasts at Apellbine. I never thought that I'd...!

Player: "Calm down. This is real."

Right.... Right.... I'm calm now. I can do this. I know I can. But there is one potential wrinkle.

The process requires specialized materials. Very expensive specialized materials.

It'll run you about 8,000,000 Kinah, not including labor at all. Y-you don't mind...do you?

Player: "Nope. Here it is."

No? No! You come over here, dangle this in my face, and then you snatch it away like....

Whew. I...I'm sorry, Player. I got excited there. Too excited. I hope I haven't disgraced my entire profession acting like that.

I need to be alone for a while. Just...return when you've got everything in your Cube, okay?

Player: "Don't worry about it."

Great! No, it's more than great! It's... Argh, I did it again! Sorry. Let me get to work.

I just need some of this...and do that.... Some hammer strikes.... Yah! Ho!

Oh, Agrif would be so proud to see this.... Please use it well. This is some of my finest work.
