Notes

• Obtaining this weapon is a very hard and tedious quest. It will require an amount of devotion and sacrifice that most can not meet. The following coins are required, per stage, to complete this weapon, starting from stage 2 to stage 5(final product).

• • Stage 2: 3 - Montiont Silverpiece
  • Stage 3: 15 - Lungo-Nango Jadeshell
  • Stage 4: 60 - One Hundred Byne Bill
  • Stage 5: 1 - Ranperre Goldpiece

• This weapon requires a total of 17,800 coins from dynamis.

• This is an estimation of the cost.

-Assume that each individual 1 byne bill costs 7k, and both of the individual whiteshells, and bronzepieces cost 10k.

This weapon will cost you 157,000,000.

-If you assume that the 1 bynes are 7k and the whiteshells and bronzepieces are 12k.

This weapon will cost you 180,000,000.

Historical Background

In Japanese Mythology, Amanomurakumo no tsurugi is the Divine Sword of Susanoo, a Violent God. He obtained this sword by slaying the monster serpent with 8 heads, Yamata no orochi, and later devoted the sword to his sister, Amateratsu, Goddess of the Sun. Once in the possession of Amateratsu, it became known as Kusanagi no tsurugi and was one of three elements (sword, mirror, and ornamental bead) that made the symbol of the Emperor's Throne, called "The Three Sacred Treasures".
