Combine pistol and exanimaera.
The smith creates the EXANIMATOR, which is theoretically twice as deadly, being made from an instrument rumored to SCARE THE LIFE OUT OF PEOPLE and a weapon rumored to KILL PEOPLE WITH BULLETS. E seems really proud of it so you don't tell em that a big bag that you have to inflate and squeeze to shoot bullets kind of sucks ass. Also you say sorry for shooting out that window, you'll get it fixed as soon as you can.
