"This staff must be more than just a wooden stick, right? It seems the marshal picked the sturdiest weapon for you." The wooden staff was as long as the Rose Spear. It was actually just a wooden post meant for building camp structures.
If Aurora had paid close attention, she would have realized it was an ordinary stick. Convinced of Rafael's favoritism towards Carissa, however, she refused to believe he would give her anything ordinary in this challenge.
