About This Quote

This is for you. Galahad drew a knife from the pouch at his belt. It was an odd little thing, T-hilted and small enough to fit into a woman’s hand. Its translucent blade, only an inch and a half long, was bound with scrolling bronze wire to the bone hilt.

The knife was made of obsidian, the most sharp of all stones which has no equal in the world. If it were to come into contact with sunlight it would cause all light to bleed out of its path leaving only darkness. The knife is an ancient relic and very valuable and is used as a symbol of strength and power because of its deadly nature.
