Pyrrhic offered Artus a smile in response to his statements. "I would relish the opportunity." He lit up when offered the claws and then carefully schooled his expression into one of humble gratitude. A dip of his head completed the look and he accepted the claws. "You are too kind! Thank you, Artur. I will make good use of these. Rest assured they will not go to waste." In fact he would use two of them now. Amadeus had said something about fixing the claws to the bracers in a way not unlike dewclaws and that idea appealed to him from an aesthetic point of view. Affix the claws in a way that was both functional and appealing to the eye, and then embed two shorter, less eye catching metal blades above and behind them.

He and Benkos did just that. Pyrrhic picked out the straightest and sturdiest looking metal pieces and together they worked both them and two of the claws into the leather bracers. Benkos did his own attempt at knotwork around the claw/metal combo. They would have to sharpen the metal later and in all likelihood that might damage the cord, but at least now Pyrrhic had something to work off of. He could make copies of the bracer if he had to and the claws could be taken out and reused. All in all he was satisfied.
