Created alongside *The Last Word*, this weapon has seen more conflict than any other across Valakadyn, with the sole exception of the Blade of Vaka. A long-range, dual-action rifle, the idea for this weapon came to *The Reaper* in a vision: one where she witnessed it being used to kill one of her companions, [[Threaven Wranris, The Provident Harbinger of Life, President of the Grand Reserve and Original Wielder of the Shroud of Vaka]]. She crafted the weapon in a haze, unsure if she were solidifying fate or attempting to avoid it.
