a decent short story
I enjoyed the added Arthurian legend and the connections to Sherlock. The inn keepers dialect made it frustrating to understand what he was saying. Also some of the words used and sentence structures where difficult to grasp.
The curse was interesting and the story seemed to focus more on the curse then it did the mythic sword which was annoying considering the title.
