One of the Blade of Admonition

The Blade of Admonition is a relic of the Adepta Sororitas.[1]

This blessed Power Sword was carried by Alicia Dominica and was used to cut the head from Goge Vandire, and a thousand more heretics and false prophets in the following decades.[1]

After Alicia Dominica's martyrdom, The silver blade was recovered and polished to a mirror sheen. It is said that those who look upon the blade can see the reflection of their own soul in its perfect surface. The weapon is therefore known to cause terror amongst the wicked facing it in battle, as they must avert their gaze in abject horror of their true selves.[1][2]

Those who wield the sword can use its powers to measure the corruption inside their soul or others'. Thus the user cannot fail to compare their worthiness to that of St. Dominica, and so strive to emulate her example.[1]

The weapon design seems to have has been copied in the following millennia, as Saint Orlanda had one to her name[3], and several other Blades are known to exist in the Calixis Sector. They possess power similar to the original.[2]
