Glacises and Scorch

Glacises and Scorch are longswords of a thin elfish design. The Cross guards would be more appropriate on a rapier and could best be described as swept hilt (not basket). The hilts are made of a dark-wood only found in the Worm Wood and the pommel is a elemental figure (air or fire)

They both have scabbards of wood covered with leather of either red or blue. The Belts and frogs are new and of a tan un-died leather. 

=        Koninis was the warrior who was first known to wield the swords Glacises and Scorch before the scourge.

=        Koninis was a warder in the blood wood.

=        Who made the swords is unknown

=        It is believed he named them himself

=        Koninis was a warrior and an Elementalist

=        The swords have elementals bound to them

=        The fire elemental is named Flicanus

=        The Water elemental is named Speelaus
