The story goes that due to a bitter feud between a knight and a sorcerer over a lady whom they love, the two challenged each other to a duel – with the sorcerer promising that he would not use magic. However, the knight doubted the promise. Knowing that he would never have any chance against the sorcerer’s spells, the knight sought a blade which would ward him from magic. Having found one, he then met the magus for the match. To the knight’s surprise, the sorcerer fought fair and square with no magic and was beaten soundly. However, the knight was shamed by his own action and became a hermit instead.
The sword was changed by the event and is now known as The Grief of Shame.
