Abstract:
Comprehensive analysis of bladed weapons utilised during the Time of Awakening, with focus on the transition from ritualised combat to philosophical disarmament following Surak’s teachings. Metallurgical comparisons demonstrate a sharp decline in weapon ornamentation as logic replaced honour-based conflict structures. Cultural implications are re-evaluated in light of recently uncovered desert clan archives.
