Mercy
Mercy is one of the 4 sentient blades crafted by Solaris.
A massive 5 and a half foot blade of pure adamantine, its edges are waved in the fashion of a flamed sword. A crossguard is in a V shape, wrapped in the scales of a dragon. Its handle is wrapped in the same material. The pommel of this sword is diamond shaped, with a deep red gemstone set in the middle.
Mercy has a woman's voice, both brash and cautious. It's only heard by the saint who wields it, and offers tactical advice and little fluff. It's not built for war but as a deterrent of war, she wants to avoid conflict but if conflict does arises she wants it to be done with quickly and efficiently. Mercy can warm a room when drawn, and its blade is said to light on fire.
Mercy is a blade of slaying, slaying those who seek to harm you, slaying evil. But it's also not one of excess, violence is to be used when needed and no true other option exists.
Many pray to Mercy in times of hardship, to avoid conflict, and many more pray to make the conflict end in their victory.
Mercy was last used in defence of Duskdrift during the War of the Dragon. Since then it has been lost.
