The Rose Clan. A family that is renowned across the known world for the strength of their member's Weapon type Manifestations, an item which supposedly represents the summoner's soul. Some Manifestations are weapons, some heal, some just play music, however, they all have laws by which they abide. Each has two powers, a Call and a Bane. The Call is a power developed by the aspects of the owner, while a Bane is what the summoner hates. Very few have learned to unlock their Bane, let alone master it. In the Rose Clan, however, such thing is commonplace. So commonplace it is considered the norm.Nathan Rose is a boy born into the Rose Clan as the Clan leaders third child. Despite being the son of one of the strongest and most influential in the world, his manifestation's power clocks in with the lowest in recorded history. A zero out of one hundred. After countless years of being beaten up, he finally stands up to his father only to be beaten into the ground, his Manifestation broken. But just when he thinks that all is lost, an old man asks him a simple question. "Do you wish to be strong?"Join Nathan on his quest to prove the world wrong with a Manifestation that has more to it than it seems.     Authors Note/Important Message: HELLO EVERYONE! I am I Can Spell! and I am now the author of this story. A LONG time before I made this account I was reading stories on Royal Road. During this time the very first story I ever got into was "The Shattered Sword" by Blovix. I loved this story but, like nearly every story on Royal Road (and inevitably probably this one), the author's release schedule was erratic and eventually stopped altogether. My plan is to edit the previous chapters minorly and then take the story in the direction Blovix told me he wanted to since I think its pretty damn good. To be honest, I didn't expect him to have thought the story out all the way to the end since he stopped the story. Anyway, I hope you all enjoy The Shattered Sword as much as I did. Here is where Blovix proves I'm not lying. https://royalroadl.com/fiction/chapter/126674 PS: It's called The Shattered Swordsman because it was what Blovix originally wanted to call it but mistyped and ended up never changing it but I like swordsman because the story is about Nathan, not his sword.
