In the high temple dedicated to Mintaka upon an obsidian pedestal, rests a blade carved from the fang of Drakymeir "the Azure Wrath", chiefest of the desert dragons. This dagger is purported to have been used in a thousand assassinations, each sacrificed in the service to the goddess, that her glory may be restored. - Unknown
