Daedalus then walked over to his forge and poured a block of living metal into the fire. As Daedalus got it up to temperature he also prepared a few different types of wood, like ebony and ironwood, for the handle. When it reached the correct temperature and began melting Daedalus quickly removed a small amount from a side of the block.
Daedalus took this chunk over to his anvil and slowly began making the circulatory system for the sword. It was only when there would be enough parts in each part of the sword, blade, guard and handle, that he stopped satisfied with his work. If the sword gained sentience then it would be able to strengthen every par of itself, except maybe the wooden outer handle bit.
Now that the circulatory system was complete Daedalus circulated his mana through it, in order to make it tougher to break, bend or melt. Walking over to the furnace Daedalus put the new circulatory system into the now boiling molten living metal. Using his mana Daedalus forced the circulatory system and living metal to attach while also forming the blade and guard of the sword. Daedalus did it this way as it was a less delicate point and it would actually benefit the sword to use his mana to form it.
With the sword finished other than the wooden part of the handle Daedalus placed it into the cooling water. Daedalus then took a few different types of strong woods and carved out a handle made out of each type of wood, this would make it a st.u.r.dier handle. As he finished with the handle Daedalus walked back over to the sword and took it out of the water. After letting his blade cool for a while Daedalus placed the handle into its slot between the metal ribs of the handle.
Daedalus then picked up the blade. It looked beautiful to Daedalus like the stars and void or time and s.p.a.ce. the handle was made with rib like circular rings that could be strengthened by mana and would protect the wooden handle if nothing else. The guard of the blade resembled the wings of a great black dragon with a metallic l.u.s.tre and scale like protrusions that could be used to more effectively stop, break and trap enemy's swords, it also had a few tube like parts that would allow for better mana conduction. The blade was a bright silver black that resembled galaxies and stars as well as black holes and the void. The circulatory system naturally had many parts going into the blade itself but the part with the most was the very center of the sword where all of the parts connected, that is where the core will be formed when his sword gains sentience... or more so awakens.
