“…Plus I’ve got the the Sword of Acorns.”
TYPO’D
Sonic: . . . Sword of Acorns.
But that got destroyed a while back; you’re holding the Sword of Light, Sonic. Did Prelates C and S hit Silver so hard that it affected his genes, breaking his spell check, and then travel back in time, injuring Sonic’s cannoncy check in the present?
Apparently Elias inherited the Sword of Light after Sir Connery, it’s previous owner, died.
Eggman says “I’M BAAAACK”
I say “Again?”
Ah I’m joshin’, looking forward to it
For me, Excalibur is the best sword.
I love how the description mentions Knight of the Wind…As soon as he grabbed the sword in #223..I instantly flashed back to Sonic and the Black Knight, Which was an awesome game. I don’t give a damn if you say otherwise.
