For TAOWolf

Long has it been, this game with its years of individual posts, without the sword being used. This post, of all posts, however, is different for the sword has been allowed to strike and reach and seize. Spiritsword it is called and confined within it are the spirits of the slain. It is a weapon of great power and today that power is not merely unsheathed but put to use. With a smooth and practiced ease the woman strikes the creature with the blade and with an intensity of power the blade begins to reach into the banewolf and draw its essence.

What the result of this would have been in any other place on any other day is difficult to say for the banewolf has no soul - only death within it. Still the blade bites deeply and its furious power cuts at the seems of the creature’s body, splitting them open. Perhaps this single strike would destroy even so mighty an opponent as this but mighty though the sword may be there is an appetite for life and power active here that is far beyond the strength of a blade. Even the ground of this place shakes for a single furious moment as another grip claims the banewolf, seizing it from the sword. But the Hunger which reaches forward so violently is hardly satisfied with the destruction of such a creature when the might of such a blade lies fresh for the taking. Into the blade it reaches with such force that it nearly flies from the woman’s hands. Screams erupt in the air about the blade as souls long trapped begin to lose what little self they yet possess to a cold an unrelenting emptiness.

The blade shakes in her hands and seems suddenly fragile and the hell within the sword seems suddenly about to break loose.
