Now that you’ve got a weapon for yourself, you need to pick one for Datz. Given that her great speed is her strongest point as a warrior, she needs a spear that suits her fighting style - one that doesn't hinder her movements and allows her to move, dodge and strike as fast as if she was unarmed. Of all the spears you tested, there are two that would fit her perfectly. They are slightly shorter than the others and weigh so little you bet she can carry both without being encumbered...
You grab the pair of spears, which look unremarkable compared to yours - probably because any decorations would add to their weight, thus ruining their whole appeal. However, when Gondar sees you taking even more weapons with you, his eyes pop out of his face and a gasp escapes his mouth. “F-FUCK! Y-you want those as well?!”
“Is thew a probwem with that? The Lightbwinger is fow me, and these ones a-aw fow Daitza. She's wight over thew, in case you fowgot about hew.”
The dwarf throws a quick glance at your mate, who has her back turned to avoid staring at the servant. “A-ah, yes, yes… o-of course. T-the female gnoll. Fine, I… I g-guess y-you can t-take the Featherweight spears, too.” Featherweight spears? So that's how these two are called? Makes sense, actually. “G-got everything you n-need, then? G-good. N-now, d-do your part and go k-kill that demon for me." His anxious gaze moves back and forth over you and the exit, signaling that he wants you to get out of here "R-remember y-your reward. A-a spear unlike ANY other y-you’ve ever seen. Yes, e-even better than the Lightbringer.”
“We’ll retuwn when the fiend is dead” you say, walking up to Datz. You tap her shoulder to get her attention and hand her the Featherweight spears. “Here, take these. Hope you like them.” Daitza holds them both in her free hand, as she’s holding the torch with the other. She admires them with great interest in her eyes. “Wow! These spears combined weigh less than a single one made of stone! What are they even made of?!"
"I thought you didn't like humie technology, Datzy..." you tease her a bit, grinning.
"I... I guess I can make an exception with SOME technology. Just don't make me wear those claustrophobic metal suits... armour, right? That's a total no from me!"
"Oh, you stubborn girl. I hope you change your mind about that soon."
"Heh. We'll see about that!"
