So much this! I am still hoping this story ends differently and Alex is still the hero. Years of us struggling with him and seeing him grow (at whatever pace) while Daniel always knew everything without any struggle and then comes into it all at the end does not make for a likeable ending. I would like to see Alex recognized for his heart and his effort…
At first, I was concerned that she would get the items to him just barely in time before the beasts get there and kill her, but then it occured to me that whatever made them turn away from the airship may also have made the ones coming for her turn away
if i understand correctly, the reason they turned away from the airship was to concentrate on chasing Niviene for what’s in the bottle she’s about to hand to Alex….
If we’re going on logic for what the scabbard might do aside form the obvious,
then I’d wager that with the sword being said to cut anything, maybe it can block?
Namely, it heals all wounds, if the legend is to be believed.
But does it wound all heels?
It would have been useful to Achilles if it had…;)
The sheath also has magical properties???
After this maybe a wraith comes up from behind and puts Niviene in a full nelson???
Niv’s admission of “flair for the dramatic” amuses me greatly.
she just wanted to look cool.
Niviene! TALK FASTER! An entire army of Abaddon is getting closer to you each second…

I forget, which sword does Dan have and which one does Alex have? I was thinking that Excalibur was in the real world with Alex…
Yes. Alex now has Excalibur on Earth, while Dan in Dreamland has the Sword of Kings. Niviene hasn’t seen what Alex is carrying, obviously.
“Make sure you give these to Daniel! I know you used to be the protagonist, but even God-King Daniel needs lackeys, so get to it Alex!”
Like Daniel needs to be more powerful…
Things are getting interesting, that is for certain. Gilgamesh is going to be pissed when he finds out that Alex has the Sibu Isahir Amelu.
The sheath does not prevent or heal all wounds, but rather prevents the holder from bleeding from wounds, removing blood loss as a concern.

Good point, I didn’t think of that
