Atrocious!

Sword Techniques were an integral part of a Swordsman's arsenal. Having a sword technique dictated the level of a sword man in skill, which was what made this very common class, more diverse.

Mana wasn't just a substance used to strengthen one's body but to also strengthen and consolidate the power of weapons.

While Energy Formers were more adept at wielding energies and manipulating them intricately even from a distance, Arma and Form Users were the opposite. 

They had the capacity to maximise the use of energies within their bodies while then using powerful effects that could be measured and in range and scope.

For Arma Users like Swordsmen, this pertained to their weapons of choice.

Moulding mana in a different ways that spawned specific techniques that were then refined and passed down through generations was the essence of being a wielder of the sword.

Stylla never forgot her heritage. She never forgot her purpose.
