Well my thought process on that was that due to this place being important. At least in the eyes of many of the rich and powerful I get the feeling that they could secure them. Also no one would ever come looking at a remote island for blades of amazing power, as far the natives know there just really powerful swords. Will be finishing my sheet now.

Considering items composed purely of this metal are viewed as artifacts to the Lei'Loni, they wouldn't merely waltz around and allow such an object to be stolen. As a point, I suppose the blade your character possesses is a rather low quality blade that is coated in a thin layer of Reso'nan. These are permitted to those low ranking Lei'Loni, perhaps you stole it from one? It will have heightened heat resistance, but won't absorb or deflect nearly as effectively.
