"That's impossible. Zedon used that sword for decades." Tolis argues in a low tone as the group stealthy trails after Adriel, being careful not to rouse any more trolls.
"Zedon did not just kill your father, he also drained his blood and used it to cleanse the sword whenever his evils poisoned it's Devine powers." Resper replies, making Tolis seethe with range.
Shella pats his shoulder, trying to comfort him. "We can do the same to Zedon when we get the sword." She suggests in a voice filled with determination.
"Zedon's blood cannot act as an atonement for the evils he committed with the sword. Only elvish royal blood can satiate the sword and revive it's powers." Resper corrects.
"So King Tolis must die for the sword to regain it's powers?" Theo questions in shock.
"Who said anything about dying? A few drops will be enough." Resper clarifies. "Your human friend obviously knew nothing about that."
