These were naturally the war spoils from the defense at Lake Asen, not the equipment the Haslan witches decided to gift to Gaven.
Rather, they were seized by him while leading the army in defense. Whether it was Daphne or Estelle, they were both meticulous planners. They were well aware of their Lord's hoarding nature, regardless of usefulness, always stockpiling a huge amount, much less to say about these permanently valuable magic equipment that were dragged back to Weizemay Manor along with the corpses whenever the opportunity arose.
This portion was considered under Gaven's ink and wasn't counted amongst the war spoils from the Laiserman Kingdom, with a total value exceeding ten million, primarily consisting of weapons and armor. Picking and choosing from it to equip ten to fifteen thousand people wouldn't pose a problem.
However, these were not the super elite heavy cavalry sponsored by the Laiserman witches but rather relatively ordinary infantry corps.
