Artifact 4 --By BrilliantRain (oricalcum, 15m to attune)
Stealthily, the ninja crept to the wall, his superhuman senses finding the unobtrusive door in the wall. He checked the door out of throughness and, predicably found it locked. "No matter," he thought, "that is what this is for." He pulled out the sheathed sword hung across his back. It was a rather simple looking straight sword, with a cylindrical, open-ended, lacquered sheath and thin handle. The ninja removed the sword from it's sheath, the dull golden blade refusing to gleam in the faint light of the stars. Holding the blade with the proper swordsman's stance the ninja touched the tip lightly to the door and stepped forward, appearing suddenly on the other side. Rasing the sheath to his eye, he saw that none of the guards were nearby, just as his research had indicated. Quickly putting the sheath to his lips and channeling a small amount of essence, he fired blowgun darts from it at each of the visible guards, the poison instantly knocking them out. Sneaking silently to the wall of the inner keep he reversed the sword and placed it's handle inside the sheath. Aming the blade at the top of the wall, he willed it to activate, shooting the sword (now trailing a thin chain) to the top of the wall. After climbing quickly up the chain, he faced the window that he wished to enter. Stepping onto the windowsill and willing the chain to retract, the ninja removed the sword and used it's door evasion powers to step through the window. A few doors later, he found the room that he had been searching for. Unfortunately, so did two of the guards.
