+@1 = ~Long Sword: The Equalizer
+The age of this sword is such that its true origin has been lost to time, but markings hint that it was possibly forged by those in the service of Helm. Also called the "Sword of Neutrality," it seems designed to seek and terminate extremism, to shift the universe closer to harmonious equilibrium. The further the orientation of a target from true balance, the more potent the damage they suffer.
