Even without any outside help, Ritsuka's seen enough swords handled to have a rough idea of how to grasp one. So she grabs the hilt more or less correctly, and... Well, that is a weird sensation. Like somehow knowing something she doesn't actually know. It startles her enough she almost drops the sword... But a healthy respect for such weapons means she makes herself maintain her grip. It isn't necessarily a bad thing, after all, just... surprising, is all.

Instead, she lifts it. Carefully, despite the apparent ease of holding it. It wouldn't do to get overconfident only to have some sort of accident, after all.

"It really is like some sort of enchanted sword, almost like something out of a legend or fairy tale..."
