When I meet Saemon H. at the Vulgar Monkey after the Asylum, he says he's giving me his sword (which I understand is a piece of the Vorpal), but when I check my inventory, I get nadda. I do get the silver blade in the following scenes, but fat lot that will do me. Has anyone had this kind of problem? Does the patch fix this? Would appreciate any advice.

You don't actually get it 'till after the fight coming up. 'nough said. Don't want to ruin your fun
