Hi people Shadowscythe here (: 
There's new Chinese Silk robes at the Mega Costumes
This is what Cy had to say

"Hello Quest Travelers,
Precious silk costumes have now arrived on Wiglington and Wenks!
Stefan fondly describes them to be “as light as a feather but tough enough to stop an arrow!” and it leaves a lot of Quest Travelers wondering. How is that even possible when silk looks like high-grade tissue paper!?
Well, let me tell you first how silk is made. When caterpillars are about to transform into butterflies, the worm spins a cocoon and hides in it awaiting adulthood. Selected species of caterpillars can spin very strong beautiful cocoons and the ‘thread’ created by them was eventually discovered by the Chinese Empress, Lei Zu. Fabrics created using silk were soft, light, beautiful and very strong.
It is said that ancient armies, most notably the Mongols under Genghis Khan, wore silk garments under armor for protection against arrows. The deeply woven nature and tensile strength of silk garments could withstand the initial impact of a spinning arrow, allowing it to twist with the arrow. It then wraps the arrow blade, creating a cushion. So even even though the arrow was still burrowed into the victim’s flesh, the silk wrapped around it reduced the depth of the wound.
Indeed, beneath a silk fabric’s soft, light and luxurious appearance, it is actually one of the strongest natural fabrics in existence.
Try and see it for yourself! Head on to Mega Costumes to check-out the latest collection of silk robes now! 
Keep Traveling!"

Wonder what it means by normal costume?
