The katana in Jin's right hand stabs at the scroll, but seems to strike an invisible barrier that glances it wide. Jin attempts the ritual once more, but this time strikes at the scroll with the blade in his left hand. As the katana touches the parchment on the second attempt, a golden glow radiates from the circle of script around the tip of the blade, as it sinks into the parchment. As the blade emerges from the other side of the scroll it appears temporarily gilded.
Like fairies scattering from cherry blossoms in the morning dew, golden sparks shed from the surface of the blade revealing its original color, but leaving behind a message:
The letters flare brilliantly, burning their image into Rujah's retinas as he looks on. The message floats in his vision with every blink in blood red everywhere he looks.

The paper erupts into a blaze of golden flame radiating outward from the circle pierced by Jin's blade, until all that is left are pieces of black soot that float gently to the floor. Even the golden lettering on the blade has vanished. Jin, however, feels that his fathers blade has been given a boon of some kind. It feels lighter in his left hand, yet even so it is sharper and stronger.
[sblock=Jin]Treasure:
Maybe this'll help your luck (at least by 1 on a d20
)
If you have AV2, I suggest you look it up. It's a part of a set that grants other abilities if you find its related items. The complete set, unfortunately, is in no one place in soft copy form, and I'm too lazy (or too much of a prick) to spoil it for you ahead of time. Good luck finding the others.[/sblock]
