Dutifully Pyrrhic did as he was told. He stepped over to Jupiter without a word and quickly drug the heavy leather blanket off of his back. It hit the ground with a metallic thud and a noisy clanking that suggested the loose odds and ends inside were settling. While the blue wolf and the ginger talked he used his teeth to work out the knot that had been holding the ends of the blanket together in a loose knapsack. Then he laid all the pieces out in neat rows - there was no other way to do it, honestly - and looked them over with new eyes. He'd collected the baubles with no purpose in mind for most of them. Sure, the occasional piece reminded him of a project and hinted at a potential use, but he had no real plans for any of them. Now he had a purpose and could search for the right piece.

His eyes settled on two long, thin pieces of metal. One end of each could be sharpened into a blade and the other could potentially be twisted into a 90 degree angle and worked through a slit in the leather? Pyrrhic glanced at Benkos, who was peeking over his shoulder. The mandrill nodded wordlessly. They were on the same page.

He pulled the bracer close and flipped it over so he could see inside. There appeared to be an inner piece and an outer piece sandwiched together. Perhaps the "foot" of the blade could be worked in between the two layers and held in place with something?
