Sola gets a 'reward' about 75% of the way through his romance (= this is not linked to any other game timer or quest completion). Notably, after you fight with Archryssa you'll be two-thirds of the way there. The reward varies depending on how you talk to him. If you choose at random, you have a > 50% chance of getting the blade. Personally, I recommend role-playing your character.
If you do end up with the blade, it will be upgraded when Sola has 3.5M XP (ToB-levels).
Thanks to some insightful commentary on this board (and in other places) the upgraded version of the blade has been weakened a bit recently. It's still probably a bit too powerful, though -- I'm giving that some thought.
