Moth knew nothing of magical swords that caused things to grow quicker, in fact hadn't even known that there were swords in Tanglewood at all, other than possibly the library in the drawings in the books and in some houses of those that used swords in battle. She never thought there would be one simply sticking out of the ground in the middle of the swamp. If she had known about it she likely would have gotten rid of it a long time ago, or, rather, dug it up and taken it somewhere where it wouldn't be a potential harm to the children and those clumsy in the group.
She had been looking for herbs, hopeful that despite the colder weather they would be around the swamp in some spots, when she saw the faint blue glimmer from behind the foliage and the sound of Ares speaking. Coming closer and seeing a sword, however, was the cause of what had caught her eye, and watching as Ares toppled over from trying to get it out of the ground cause alarm. It was possible that the young Tanglewood member would be able to be careful with the weapon, of course, but it was still a weapon and she was still a child - a child that had recently been injured already at that - so it would be understandable that Moth wasn't the most willing to simply give the other a sword out of nowhere.
"Ares?" The reaper would speak, looking down towards the other, noticing the growth of wings and horns and pausing for a moment. They had grown a lot quicker than Moth had thought they would, considering their growth thus far, and it threw her off guard for a moment, but only a moment. "I don't think you should be trying to get the sword out of the ground right now. I mean I'll help to get it out, and you can keep it but I won't allow you to use it until you're an apprentice and have had some training at least. I don't need more visitors than necessary to my house for injuries." She was a mother, she knew that children got interested in things they shouldn't at times, but so long as they were monitored it was fine, right?
