Silver Tongue

Description

This elegant +1 longsword is a masterwork of both craftsmanship and deception. Its gleaming blade is etched with intricate runes that shift subtly to the discerning eye. When read one way, they form a scandalous poem; when read another, they proudly proclaim the ancient motto of a noble house. The sword’s hilt, crafted from polished silver and dark leather, contains a hidden secret: a magical extra-dimensional channel. This small, unnoticeable space can comfortably store a surprising quantity of gems, coins, and other small, non-bulky objects, making it ideal for discreet smuggling or quick access to components.
