Dauðr- First Of The Soul Reaper Series

Dauðr: meaning- Death

Dauðr, the blades of death, once gifted upon those who wreak havoc and murder on poor innocent souls. Dauðr was once owned by the reaper of death themselves. A name we still do not know of to this day. A fiery demonic blood pumps through the steel of the blades, burning its enemies, digging into their flesh and purging the life force from their very soul. No mortal has ever been able to wield it since its discovery on the earthen plane. It lays stuck behind the glass of its imprisonment, as onlookers tremble in fear as they walk past. Laying dormant until a rather untimely day.

One soul.

One unlucky soul is all it took

The poor mortal was supposed to die on this very day not knowing when or how just today. He walked into the main building feeling the urge to find something, when he came across the glare of the shining light on the blades. He was mesmerized by the dark, cold metal. By the crimson red runes drawing upon the hilt. Where as others would scurry past in terror he was stuck. Staring. Consumed. Possessed. While no one was looking he unlocked the glass that was once made the soul of the blade feel trapped, reaching out almost hoping something, no, someone would stop him before touching the seemingly cold metal before him.
