Hello every, I have a question on the conjuration of the watcher. The Nec says "and the Sword of the Watcher, with his Sigil engraved there upon," must the Watchers sigil literally be engraved on the sword, or can it be drawn on, or am I misreading this section?
Many thanks.
I collect swords. I use whatever feels appropriate when I use the Bandar. Or just grab whatever is lying around. After all the time i have spent polishing my swords I shudder at the thought of engraving or painting on one of my Tachi. I do not think Bandar minds. Not that it really matters since I am his master. Albeit a good master as he is a good and kindly Watcher likr the lord that hath made me. If its any consolation I have his symbol drawn on my Shinai. <Bamboo practice sword.> This keeps it from getting accidentally picked up by someone else in my Kenjutsu dojo.
