Ten days, thats how long I had to say in jail for the crime of pissing Therod off (there was some bullshit reasoning behind it but I can't be assed to remember what it was). The town as it always tended to do went back to normal business by the time I was let out. Oshujon his duty to bother me satisfied had left by the time I got out, he did visit once, if only to remark how it was so strange to get a jail sentence and not an execution. I tried to explain that it was a more progressive solution, but I was under the impresion he wasn't actually looking to listen to the argument.
Therod of course did not recognize my contribution to saving the town, prefering to believe that the damned in attempt to take my soul actually killed themselves. A theory not exactly wrong, since thats kind of what happened, just not with me specifically. See I realized the sword was taking our life force but not into itself just kind of dispelling it, which meant that either it was extremely wasteful OR it was some kind of anti life being and the way to destory was to let the life flow into it. So I basically reversed the flow of its evil magic to force the life force it was draining into itself, it couldn't handle all the life flow energy and exploded.
So if you ever find yourself fighting a cursed army with a life draining blade, just turn that magic back on them and bang you too can survive. I admit it sounds easier than it is, but I'm sure with practice you can figure this stuff out no issue! I mean I'm only hundreds of years old so its not impossible, just highly improbable.
