Artifact 5 --By BrilliantRain

The Paths of the Outsiders

• The seventh path of Victory: If you know neither the enemy nor yourself, you will succumb in every battle.
  
• The eighth path of Victory: If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat.
  
• The ninth path of Victory: If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles.

Appearance: This sword has a similiar design to the reaper dakilave. It has several key differences, however. The most obvious is that it has several lines of old realm script engraved into the blade. These spell out the 3 paths to victory. The next major difference is the air of quality surounding the blade. Anyone can tell that a true craftsman made this blade. The last, and strangest, difference is that, while the blade is sharp enough to cut steel, it will still fail to draw blood.

The Sheath that this sword is kept in is also a high quality item, made from black laqured wood with lines of text in Old Realm inlayed in Orichalcum on it. The text says "Supreme excellence consists in breaking the enemy's resistance without fighting."
