Lord Rimoah steps towards the table and picks up a seemingly ordinary scabbard.

‘Here, take this,’ he says, placing it into your hands. ‘It is woven from strands of pure korlinium. It will keep secret the true powers of your mighty blade.’

You exchange your old scabbard for this new one and affix it to your belt. (Record the Korlinium Scabbard as a Special Item on your Action Chart. You need not discard another item in its favour if you already carry the maximum permissible.)

‘Your new scabbard will shield your goodly blade, Grand Master;’ comments Lord Ardan, ‘but what of yourself? You are imbued with Kai powers that may readily be detected. Your formidable skills of body and mind could alert Naar’s minions to your presence.’

If you possess a Platinum Amulet, turn to 53.

If you do not possess this Special Item, turn to 296.
