The feybow of Wyld legend. Strung taut with the golden eyelash of the Empress Alora, of spider silk weaver-wound. Stolen way 'fore it could be gifted. Such is the grace of the Starling Bow, its wind blades guarding the Sappheline orb from those who may steal it back. Enchanted by the grace of the rogue, Sirin, and the sacrifice of the Empress of Eldveil, both. Wield your ancestral arm with pride, child of Sirin.
