The Spirit Sword was crafted from the same crystal as the waystones stationed around the Wildwood. Within it are bound a host of nebulous entities, once the most feared denizens of that benighted place. These doomed creatures grant the Spirit Sword its power, for when the weapon draws blood, the wielder can command them to consume his opponent’s very soul. There is no defence against such a fate save force of will. If the victim’s mind is strong enough, he can perhaps resist the power of the sword, at least for a time, but no one can resist the Spirit Sword indefinitely.[1a]
