The Desert Wind

This slender and graceful scimitar is crafted of shining steel, lustrous ivory, and polished gold. Its hilt is set with brilliant blue sapphires and fiery red rubies. Close examination reveals the blade’s perfect balance and keen edge, as well as a grip wrapped in wire—it will not slip in a hand slick with sweat or blood. The weapon was forged by the Broken Lords many thousands of years ago. It was granted to their king, who could use its power to control the makeup of the desert itself. Since the destruction of their empire, it was placed and guarded within the Devils Tear. In 1670, the tower of Devils Tear was raided by the Mamluks, and it was stolen by their leader, and used to aid in the War of the Crown in Vedania.
