Firebrand

The Firebrand is a Flame Anima sword kept by the Royal Family of Finney

Firebrand Ceremony
The Firebrand Ceremony is a tradition in Finney to determine the successor to the throne. All candidates for the throne must approach the Firebrand and weild it. The sword channels the Anima in people and glows a brilliant red colour, indicating a worthy ruler.

Both Gustave XIII, and then later his brother Phillipe, fail the Firebrand Ceremony to be crowned King of Finney.
