Jaxen was a willing follower. He had eyes only for the sword. Shit, this thing was heavy. The point was wicked sharp. Even the edges slid red when he thumbed it. The hilt was designed with gold overlay and jewels. Despite the beauty, it was something inside that was the object of Jaxen’s obsession.
Aiden’s declaration broke the spell, and Jaxen looked around. The Causeway was someplace he would be happy to never see again.
“Yeah, car. Do it,” he mumbled, turning the sword over and over again, trying to catch a glimpse of the light inside.
Then he just began to laugh, something broken more than merriment. "That was fucking unbelievable!" he said with tears in his eyes. Just for fun, he hoisted the bitch-ass heavy sword as if to challenge Aiden's spear to a duel. He had no idea how to use it except to keep the pointy end away from himself. But his arms were noodles and he didn't think he could do much else than stand there looking like a proper awesome idiot.
