The most significant weapon used in Silver Phoenix is the one carried by my heroine, Ai Ling:
Master Tan handed Ai Ling a long blackwood box.
She opened the lid and blinked with shock.
Nestled within emerald satin rested a dagger, its blade the length of her hand. The short ivory hilt was encrusted with red jewels, the butt of it covered in gold.
Ai Ling does use this weapon to battle evil in Silver Phoenix, but goes on to use it for something that is unspeakable. And this act and the dagger will haunt her in Fury of the Phoenix.
