The Watchmen`s sword was... «Kings of the Wyld»
RamingoWS24 августа 2018The Watchmen`s sword was belted on his hip, and Blackheart was slung over his right shoulder. The shield was named for a rampaging treant who had led a living forest on a monthlong killing spree through southern Agria. Blackhead and his arboreal army had wiped out several villages before laying siege to Hollow Hill. Though a few stalwart defenders remained to protect their homes, Clay and his bandmates had been the only real fighters in town. The ensuing battle, which lasted for almost a week and claimed the life of one of Saga`s numerous unlucky bards, was the subject of more songs that could be sung in a day. Clay himself had cut down Blackheart, and from the treant`s corpse had hewn the wood from which he`d fashioned his shield. It had saved his life more times than all his bandmates together, and was Clay`s most cherished possession. Its surface told the story of countless trials: here gouged by the razor claws of a harpy broodmother, there mottled by the acid breath of a mechanized bull. Its weight was a familiar comfort, even if the strap was starting to chafe, and the top lip kept scraping the back of his head, and his shoulders ached like a plough horse hitched to a granite wagon.
