>>66570183I was coincidentally looking at that chapter last night since I needed to make sure I got a name I made up back then spelled right. So I made the enchantment because I think it makes sense for a magically inclined society to have something like for their law enforcement, and it's also meant to make Anon and co conscious about if they truly want their blows to be lethal since the enchanted weapon will only draw blood if your emotions/mind calls for it. Anon will wrestle with himself on when it's right to take a life or not several times throughout his journey, and this enchantment on his sword will let him fight his hardest while allowing him to spare his opponents if the situation calls for it. The enchantment itself is more noticeable in later fights and encounters, since I think while I introduced it in the chapter you just finished, I don't remember anyone really making use of it besides Flare, since Anon and Polka were mostly deflecting weapons with their own.
Thanks for reading it by the way and I'm really glad you like Polka. She's so fun to write and her general approach to problems and her friends is probably my favorite of the cast so far.
This is HER year.
