Wellknives

Wellknives are a knife unique to the Zykos order.

“''Forged in the greatest time of need, the knives of the Zykos―commonly referred to in Salenyan literature as wellknives―were a pivotal development for the Zykos Order during the first Exosi ascendancy. Twenty wellknives were forged by an Amathi smith who lived alone on Mount Lulak, where the mountains meet the sea. The man, long since deceased, forged the weapons for the order in a final stand to resist complete Exosi dominance of the continent. The wellknives were enough to tip the scales, and are the only reason love still holds on in all Galeya.”''

“Listen to this,” her mother continued. “''Some rumours claim the Amathi smith never slept and died from exhaustion, others say that he transferred his essences into each of the knives, but none know the truth. The knives can store levels of essence previously impossible to Exosi and Amathi pyusants. The knives created beings who could wield the power of both pure love and destruction. However, the story of the wellknives is not a complete one. Some were lost on the returning voyage through Mount Lulak, and with it―their masters. Another two were taken during the siege on the Northern Citadel in Valhia, marking the start of the Age of Vengence.”''

''“The last fifteen are rumoured to still reside with their original Hands, and we pray that one day Salenya will see them fight again. To all that wish for this world’s return to love and celebration of the beautiful, we thank you. Be patient, the return to love is coming, futures have been seen and hope lies on the horizon for all.''”
