The magical weapon that the spirit talked about was new to Maureen's ears. She had never read about it in any of the books at the academy or those in her personal collection which she had acquired over the years.
On seeing their confusion which was expected, the Saxon spirit went on to explain. "It is a formidable sword that was forged from the blood, bones and tears of the god of war. The ingredients were mixed with molten celestial steel.
The blood represents unyielding rage and power, the tears embody profound sorrow and sacrifice and the bones, strong will and strength. Its nature is destructive and redemptive, it was a weapon created to help humans slay gods and deities many centuries ago.
I am surprised that you don't know about it. It should be recorded somewhere in the books at your academy."
