The Lloy-forged scimitar known as the Liar’s Blade, wielded by Thjazi and taken up by Halandil after his death.
The curved sword returned to Halandil after Thjazi’s execution is identified as the Liar’s Blade, a weapon forged by the Lloy family for a long-ago war. Its maker’s mark first resembles a sinister half-mask with a protruding tongue, but from another angle becomes a smiling face in profile. Halandil takes up the blade as Dol-Makjar grows more dangerous.
A beautiful, heavily used curved blade in a fitted leather scabbard. Near the hilt is a Lloy maker’s mark that can appear either as a broken half-mask or as a smiling profile playfully extending its tongue.
Forged by the Lloy family for an earlier war whose exact identity is not established in the episode.
