The sudden need to do this rushes through her, leaving her half-nauseous in its wake. "You'll come with me, then."

Well she's not getting back to sleep. Maybe she'll take another fishing-bath.

The bath helps her wake up properly. She likes the water. Father used to call her "little nixie", and when she learned what nixie meant she went and fished up a load of pondweed and made herself a crown of it, so she could be a proper one. Her father laughed and laughed. Then her crown turned out to be full of baby leeches, and they had to bleach her hair and shave it off.
It was worth it, obviously. She'd never seen him laugh so hard. And he'd held her and sung the whole time while they took her hair, and it almost made up for the trouble.
She's going to kill every orc in whatever cave sent them for him.

The thing will give her magic! She can use it to cast spells! Many of the spells will slightly improve her sword! Or heal people! Or create pure water like how priests do! Or make enemies want to fight her instead of Aḥyl!

Sword blessing and the one over there that can fix exhaustion, please.

She's not your dancing monkey. She is here to kill things. Sword blessing and restoration, please.

She returns to camp. She didn't catch any fish this time. It's fine; she and Aḥyl are both remarkably good at hunting.
