I'm a say it. Two pictures now and only 1 sword in each. Where's the 2nd one?


An agreeable question! Where is the second sword?
Screw you all, and have a nice day!

I imagine the realities of actually wearing two shoulder mounted swords turned out to be a bitch, when doing anything else than striking a pose.

It's because the TV series is based on the books where he has one sword and not the game where he has two swords.

Wait. What does he do when fighting monsters then? Or is a silver sword just as good against regular weapons?

He does have the second sword in the novels actually, but as far as I recall, he keeps the silver one strapped to Roach, not on his back like in the games.

I should really get around to reading these books. Especially now that they're making a TV-show.

If Roach doesn't get stuck behind a blacksmith's shop, between the wall and a fence, I'm going to be disappointed.

In one of the other pictures, you can see the silver sword tied to Roach's left-hand side.

(Lauren Hissrich also confirmed this on her Twitter account)

"Chaos is the most dangerous thing in this world....BUT, without control, chaos will kill you." What the hell is wrong with whoever wrote this? If it's the most dangerous thing in the world, how is it "BUT" it will kill you? Rather than, say, "AND" or "SO". I already hate whoever wrote this dialogue.

Is there an actual release date for the show?

I wonder if I could find time to squeeze in the first few books before it starts.

Late 2019 is all we've got. But, do it! I read them all in a week while procrastinating from studying for finals, best way to do it.
