The Sword of Sightless Eyes
The Sword of the Sightless Eyes was created for Zanatha by a demon blacksmith. It was created by tempering it in the blood of 1,000 different lives, and then, when that was done the demon blinded 1,000 beings and cast their blinded souls into a red tear shaped gem set into the hilt. The Sword of the Sightless Eyes was last seen in the possession of Zanatha, the Chosen Son of Set on the battlefield of the Sivil Plains during the decisive battle between he and Meloen Elna, Queen of the Elves who wielded the Sword of Hope. The battle ended tragically for it could be seen that at the last second Meloen lowered her weapon and as the Sword of the Sightless Eyes struck her body a bright radiant light flashed and Manahath’s sword was sundered into 1,000 pieces.
