[Van Zieks's changed form is obvious, fluffy tail swishing once behind him for balance as he straightens up, but the only change to the girl's appearance were her clothes and the addition of a weapon. Those weren't the only changes entirely, however.] I've no plan to leave without her, but I believe... she is more equipped to handle herself for a short time, thanks to these enchantments.
[If you'd seen how easily she swung that axe at first, Naruhodo...... He folds his arms.]
