Sharpe’s Bizarre Blade Bazaar Item #342b: “Guardian Gladius”
Price: 3,333 sols
Wonderful for the wealthy warlord, perfect for pirates’ plunder, designed for a dragon’s delve, it’s the guardian gladius! This sword is a wonder in and of itself, forged from strongest damascene steel with a mirror shine and a handle inlaid with gold and ivory. But the true wonder is its magickal ability: by speaking the command word (included with purchase) the guardian gladius will protect an area or item of it’s owner’s choice! Set-and-forget to guard your treasure, fire your bodyguard, or even have it keep an eternal vigil over your entombed wealth! Whatever you’re guarding, the guardian gladius will protect it as if wielded by an invisible swordsman of level five or above.
Kastane’s Note:
You might think you’re being funny. You might think you’re being clever. Ironic, even. But don’t do it. I know you’re thinking of doing it right now, but don’t. Seriously. DO NOT tell the Guardian Gladius that the real treasure was the friends you made along the way. DON’T DO IT.
