The Gedan-no-Kamae

Ty's focus narrowed to his hand, tightly grasping the sword as its form began to tremble and shift. The black flames enveloping the blade converged into the center slot, forming a swirling black flame that seemed to churn endlessly at the core of the weapon.

"Wow, so it does seem this sword was meant for me, or at least someone who can wield fire," Ty mused, marveling at the transformation and the unique connection he seemed to have with the blade.

Curious about its history and testing, Ty asked, "How far did you test this blade again, Mr. Lieutenant?"

The Lieutenant unsheathed a katana-like blade, its dark leather hilt complementing the seamless steel color of its blade. "I tried all the main element users to hold it, and none were able to ignite that core like you did," he explained, indicating that Ty's interaction with the sword was unique among those who had attempted to wield it.
