Not village, like you walk into Sargoth and you can
Go to the castle
take a walk around the streets
go to the areana
go to the marketplace
go to the forge
and you learn to make new weapons like in Magic World learning new spells. You find someone to teach you, you do a quest for them, and then they teach you. To make a weapon, you have to stay in the forge for a day or two and pay for supplies, which would be cheaper than buying the weapon, but you have to waste a couple days. Perhaps Rhunon teaches you to make a riders sword that will never break or drop.
