3. A broken blade found just outside the gates

A broken blade found just outside the gates


  • A once enchanted and still very fine blade has been left at the gate to the camp in two parts. The blade has been broken and shows signs of burn marks all along its length. Anyone examining the two peaces will definately recognise the symbol of Torm engraved into the hilt (now tarnished and half scratched off). Any of you who knew Matrim well will recognise it as his blade….

    After hours of shock and pain staring at the blade, some of her old stubborn spirit fought its way into her dark thoughts.

    If this blade made it all the way back here, Matrim has to be at least around. Dead or Alive… I'll find him!

    New determination in her step, she grimly whistled for Katinar and left for Jiyyd to speak with the Order of the Divine Shield. The talk with Cyrus turned out to be a bit disappointing, him noticing the blade was broken and might be able to be fixed by some crafter.
    He didn't quite seem to get her point and only after her pressing on the matter, he suggested, that Daisy could scry for Matrim one of these days.

    Heck.. that's not good enought Cailah cursed soundlessly to herself, nodded and watched Cyrus return to the temple.

    Thanks to Andu'mien and Fadia standing nearby and overhearing her conversation, they were able to give her hope! Andu'mien offered to scry that very same day for her before the sun would go down.

    Lighter around her heart, Cailah continued on to Norwick, spreading the news that the blade has been found adn that she intends to gather his friends to look for her beloved husband!


  • News of the broken blade and the unknown fate of his longtime friend reach Cyrian , Cyrian ventures out to find any clues to the whereabouts of his friend Matrim, starting with asking those in the Gypsy camp if they saw anything when the blade was left

    When Elrin hands her the blade pieces, a loud, agonized scream escapes her lips. Crying, she traces the familiar handle of the blade with her fingers.

    With breaking voice, she thanks him and sobbing, returns into the camp, sitting in the circle, crying silently over the blades for several hours.


  • Amith watches as Elrin lifts the blade from the gate to the camp. It takes awhile to remember, but after careful thought she recognizes the blade. Frowning and muttering to herself she is seen wandering out into the pass.


  • _Catching a glint of sunlight off the blade as he passes through the gates, Elrin notices the broken sword. He bends down on one knee, grasping the shattered blade by the hilt, and lifting it to get a closer look. He brushes his fingers over the scratched out symbol of Torm and he sighs heavily.

    He picks the two broken shards up to go seek out Cailah, so that she may do with them as she sees fit_
