Four-hands and the Legion Blade

Euphie--Elf, wanderer, casual drinker--carries a perhaps ill-considered loyalty and lifelong debt to Kieran 'Four-Hands' Sheaford--thief, philanderer, adequate poet. She recounts her travels with him, not least of which is that of the Legion Blade.

When the pair of mercenaries have their tab called in at their usual haunt, Kieran steers them to a high-paying job to recover the stolen heirloom of the Widow Fairfax. However, the quest is not the quick cash-grab it appeared to be, as the circumstances of the theft call for suspicion, and the heirloom in question holds striking similarities to a sword of legend

--the Legion Blade--

which is said to be possessed by one thousand murdered souls. Driven by his love for the mystical and a certain fondness for the client's physical form, Kieran accepts the job, trusting the grunt work to his long-suffering companion.
