Pretty unusual place to live at...except in wartime.
[That's literally the only time she has known someone living in a fortress. Erin's response has an implied question: does Iwatooshi come from wartime? He said he's from the Heian period, but she lacks knowledge about Japanese eras]
[Takes a moment for Erin to realize from context clues what a naginata is -- to some extent. This guy...sounds more and more like a weapon. The kind you have to hold.]
[Erin wonders what she has wondered many times throughout her life: why does it feel like, wherever she goes and whatever she encounters, it feels like the universe is throwing spaguetti at the wall and seeing what sticks?
This really tall guy with the shark teeth is a walking weapon. Forged in the Heian era. Sure! Why not. This will have to be accepted]
Okay, I won't say I get it completely but I guess I understand enough.
Aside from the events of this weekend, it’s interesting, and very different from what I’m used to! The only human I’ve spent much time around is my master, but there’s so much you’ve already taught me in such a short time. And you’re all very fun to be around!

Yes. That's why I was summoned.

I'm pretty sure I'm in the dark about something big. Okay, start from the top. Who are you?
[Probably should have asked like that ages ago, to see if that will inform her what's up with this]

I am Iwatooshi, the naginata that, wielded by Musashibou Benkei, defeated nine-hundred and ninety-nine warriors.
no subject
You look very human-shaped, for a naginata.

That is because my master gave me this body when they first summoned me. It's much easier to fight our enemies this way.

Hahaha! That’s alright. You don’t have to. We don’t usually come into contact with humans, if it can be helped.

[We're a varied group, that's for sure. Are you enjoying your time around here, leaving aside the horrendous cult sacrifice?]

[You deserve to be around humans at better places, Iwatooshi, hoping you get the chance]
