Witan

Childblade to the glorious Dewelion. Our oldest tales tell of sacred unions between human and fey-kind. Of children who are neither, yet both. Witan was forged for such a child, its wooden hilt enchanted to grow in pace. Though... It is clear this childblade never reached its full size.

- Envoys with Fragments attained prior to Preludes 15 retained the ability to Craft Witan with Tuvalkane at the cost of the original Crafting Requirements
