"Did the pieces of this fucking sword wind up with [i]everyone that shouldn't have them?[/i] Oh, they're just holes in the world, why [i]not[/i] have them given to mages and fairies and cheesemongers," the vampire griped, "Now we have someone running around collecting them to do… [i]something[/i] and no idea of where they're [i]supposed[/i] to be!"

The one consolation was that nobody was going to be able to reforge the sword without [i]some[/i] level of divine backing… she hoped, although that was less certain. On the other hand, if [i]one[/i] was enough to be cause a bloodbath from some idiot touching it, what could you do with multiple in a single location?
