"Well I am from Atlas."

Again, something I didn't understand. Since Weiss was in a good mood I didn't want to ruin it by asking, however, so kept quiet. The bag felt heavier now, quite a bit heavier in fact, which meant that the actual weight of my sword hadn't been minimised – just the size of it. The bag was for convenience it seemed, but wouldn't be a solution to our every problem.

"You should hold onto it for now," Weiss said when I tried to hand it back. "My… frame is not well suited for carrying everyone's weapons around. But I will expect it back when this is over!"

"Of course, of course," I promised, strapping it to my waist. In all honesty the weight wasn't an issue for me, but maybe it was for a Mage. She couldn't have much Strength compared to me, Nora or Pyrrha.
