(And he holds his head up high, proud of himself,)
Famous leaders, great generals, powerful families~ I've been passed down through the ages for as long as I can remember. Of course, I'm quite beautiful so everyone desires me.
(Despite how proud he seems, there isn't any warmth to his voice. It kind of sounds like he's just rattling off things on a list or a resume. He's just saying facts. The only time he really seems to show emotion is when he gets to the end,)
Ah, but I can't forgive those that rob from graves and shrines...
(His voice is calm but there's something sharp there. Like he's insulting someone somewhere even if they aren't around to hear him.)

[ She cants her head. ]
So did a priest own you at one point?
no subject
Not a priest. I belonged to the shrine. I was offered to them and became their sacred treasure for a time~

[ She's trying to make sense of this. She can't, but anyway -- ]
If you're a sword that means you've been living for a long time, right?
no subject
Over a thousand, apparently. I stopped counting a long time ago so I can't say for certain~
no subject
Doesn't it get a little lonely? Living that long just sounds a little -- [ Oop. ] Sorry. It's not really any of my business, I guess.
no subject
(He is fine being alone???)
WHen you live a long time, you need something to pass the time.
no subject
Does someone just sit you out and you relax in the sun?
no subject
(Nodding to himself like there's definitely nothing depressing about what he said, nope.)
I didn't do much until my master called me in this form.
no subject
[ It's okay. She'll say it. ]
Well I'm glad that they came and found you.

(A gentle correction. As for that last point, Tsurumaru is quiet for a moment and gives a very small smile,)
