A Tale of a Sword

The Ending

But shortly, a few days after I had hid them all, DarkPriestess (known as Peace) arrived in front of me. She knew I had the last shard, and had gathered a considerable amount herself, in a quest I can only imagine how hard it was.

She then asked her brother MalichiW to get those shards she was missing. Having completed the collection she went to the place where the sword was broken. And there she placed each of the shards together, as they were before. The result was immediately, the glassy borders melted and the sword was whole again.

But…the glass remained.

This was the time when she remember the last advice of mine, which I gave rather indifferent, as a conclusion when she asked me for the part I had: She followed it and was amazed that the glass, which resisted to everything she tried so far, melted down like butter. Had she not remembered, or not convinced me to tell it to her, she may not have gotten the blade freed.

But, she did all this, and so Tainted was existing again, full, only lacking that sphere which I kept.

That was the time she carefully extended her hand towards the hilt and grabbed it…and as soon as she got cut, a story was visible to her.

She saw what I saw during the time when I took the Blade.
