Finished Working: now to close a chapter.

I have just finished a hard thing. I have just finished the pair of blades that were to be given to my protege when he came into his own. Possibly one of my better works. Without Li Long to give them to however i am at something of a loss. I could sell the blades for money (kami know i need it most of the time), but that would leave thier spirits unused, unheeded, and unfulfilled. If anyone here would care for and use such a pair in the old way, with the old respects, i might be convinced to seperate with this painfull reminder of the folly of pride. (i might put more down regarding the fall of Li Long at a later time).

What kinds of spirits do they possess? I am already in the possession of a blade willingly inhabited by the spirit of a dragon. I would be honored to take care of your blades, provided I know how to do so correctly.

Can you tell me a little more about them?

They are a Katana and Wakazashi crafted in the old way. there is no spirit in "possetion" of the blades. Rather the focus, will, and energy poured into the blades as they are crafted awakens the blade to a sort of sentience. with proper care (cleaning, sharpening, practice, ect.) the blades will awaken to a full sentience as well as their full abilities. these abilities tend to vary a bit from blade to blade. so far as i can tell they are molded by the first uses of the blades and the emotions of the wielder during the formative process. (my own blades, crafted by my insttructor, merely cause my attacks to be more accurate, a little faster, as well as the spirit of the blades alowing me to focus my chi into the blades)
