The Sword of Pride is a rapier of unparalleled elegance, with an intricately designed basket hilt made of glass or highly polished crystal. Its blade, though invisible during casual observation, becomes apparent in the heat of battle, flashing with ethereal brilliance. Scenes of imperial decadence are etched into the unseen length, and the entire sword exudes an air of sophistication and pride. Those who wield the Sword of Pride must not only be skilled fencers but must also navigate the challenges posed by their own pride, for the sword demands both physical and mental prowess from its master.
