Legana Breed's Flint Sword first appears in Deadhouse Gates as a four-foot grey flint blade, a heavy T'lan Imass weapon that carries the clan memory of its long-dead wielder. Throughout the series, the sword evolves from a simple relic of the T'lan Imass into a symbol of ancient power and memory, its significance growing as it becomes intertwined with the fates of key characters and the broader conflicts of the Malazan world. The sword's presence serves as a tangible link to the distant past, its weight and history influencing the actions and decisions of those who encounter it.
