Divining Blades

Divining Blades are ancient weapons composed of Nightmare Steel and are charged with untold ethereal power, which allows them to give Daemons a True Death. Examples of Divining Blades are extremely rare, and only the Warmaster Horus is known to have possessed a collection of such blades, earned in conquest and bartered for by his agents in over a century. Indeed, it is possible he owned the majority of those examples to be found in the Universe. As a sign of the utmost favour, Horus gifted a single Divining Blade to perhaps a score of warriors, in whom he saw the greatest potential destinies in his war.^[1]
