Sand Women V- The Sand Women's Swords

Before my tale continues there is something I should explain. A Sand Women’s Sword is there most prized possession. One, because they are original in their make and no sword compares. To lose it heedlessly would be the highest dishonor and is punishable by death. But no Sand Women is stupid enough to lose there sword.This is because their Swords are Magic. If someone takes, by force(Unlikely)or any other method (such as stealth and thievery)they are immediately at that person’s command. They will do anything they are told, whether they wish to or not.They also fall hopelessly in love with the possessor of the Sword(Providing, of course, the possessor is male).Because they are in love with them, they cannot kill them to retake their Sword. And, as we have both just discovered, an unwilling absence of the sword for too long results in death. However,this is all an unwilling parting of the sword. Sand Women also give their sword away.When they fall in love, they give their sword to their love,as a sign of trust.
