Equipment seems fine to me. Where did he obtain his saber though? It doesn't sound like something a farmhand would have easy access to. Was it his fathers/family, or did he buy it? And was his uncle really okay with him taking his armor when they moved out?

Think I thought of a little story behind the saber- when Dal and his family moved towards the capital, he found an old friend from Blue Lake, a friend from a very wealthy family, and won it in a friendly bet over Cribbich? His friend bet the sword, which had been given to him from [i]his[/i] father, who is a retired knight? That sound good?

As for the armor, perhaps it could've been given to him by his uncle personally when he traveled north into the capital, passing by their farm, all whilst helping refugees from the Welds? Or possibly [i]running[/i] from the refugees, whom he feared would steal from/harm him? If not either of those, he could've just gotten/made a better set and didn't want the old one to go to waste.

Any of that sound cool?
