Inside, an array of shards of silvery metal were slotted together, forming a perfect circle. It looked something like a sheet of glass that had been struck in the center with a hammer, with a central piece and breaks propagating out from the center, dividing the circle into neatly spaced sections. The edges of each shard were tapered off, forming a jagged, dagger-like blade. Sicarius picked one up very carefully. "Odd artifacts, these. I can't figure out what they do."

In a swift motion, Sicarius brought up one of the shards and sliced it in the air. Space around him seemed to bend. Nameless grew further away from him, as did Wynn and the Nurse, but TAAron was now positioned next to him. He grasped the wickedly sharp shard, which cut further into his hand. Paying the cut no attention, he went to slice the shard across TAAron's neck.

I knew you were suspicious, and you would only become more so with time." While deterred from killing TAAron, he was still able to use his weapon for its magical properties. With a swipe of his hand, a random piece of debris appeared with a flash of light in the sky above TAAron and he, and began hurtling down. "I know you can't use your magic forever!

The object hit Sicarius like an oncoming train, throwing him backwards and driving him into the ground. Somehow, despite having a wholly broken body, the man stood up. He snapped his fingers, and one of the wrought iron posts from the fence twisted, coming off and flying to his hand. He threw it at Nameless and cut with his shard, shortening the distance between him and the gnarled piece of metal.
