Saedath: Falchou's Blade

Harlequins Rites of War :: Table of Contents
Codex: Harlequins, p. 17

Each Saedath is a play and performance enacted in theatre as it is on the battlefield. A Masque which performs Falchou's Blade, retells the story of the great hawk which bore the sword of Anaris to Eldanesh's hand so he could do battle with the gods themselves. In enacting this Saedath, the Harlequins mimic this ride to glory and fate with a mass of their gravity defying skimmer vehicles, as their Void weavers and Sky weavers carry their Troupes onto battle who represent the sword. This mechanized rush represents the great hawk carrying the shining blade of Anaris to its fated end.
