Dreamwarning
The sword's owner receives a prophetic dream warning of danger within one day. The pommel stone will glow blue if danger is imminent, starting pale when the danger is within a turn and moving towards brilliant blue as it gets closer. The glow can be cancelled by the wielder at will. Attempts to surprise the wielder are reduced by 5 on a d6 or 8 on a d10. Spending 2 hours within a radius of motes of moonlight allows the wielder to cast divination to garner one piece of advice for any event in the coming 7 days. Spending the time in revere or sleep allows for up to two pieces of advice each hour in the motes, but the information is hazier due to the dream state.
Singing
The sword is also imbued with Elven and Dragon melody that can be called forth on command, but often times the sword sings of its own accord, particularly when its owner is sleeping and dreaming. The words of the melody can only be heard in the owner’s dreams.

Moon - on front.
Feature
A layer of silver over a wider layer of blue mithral plating on the sword's cutting edge creates a halo effect around the darkmetal blade core. The moonglow of the blade comes from the shiny halo area and the moonstone. Near the base of the blade, a couple of inches above the cross guard, the blade is flared in a circle with the image of the moon. Imbedded in the blade to be visible from both sides, just below the moon circle, is a 1/2 inch round clear moonstone that always displays an image of the moon in its current phase.
Rite
Lord Elian gathered 3 Starsingers and 7 Knights of the 7th Order of the Seven Sacred Mysteries, along with the silver dragon Khilat. The ceremony was held in an ancient moon temple high in the Star Mounts, under a bright full moon and clear sky in a field of Motes of Moonlight and a Moonbeam spell. Using a quart of Khilat's dragon blood, the Starsingers called Moonfire onto the alter to bathe Lord Elian and the sword. Each of the knights called forth Moon Blade spells in the shapes of their preferred swords and dubbed Lord Elian and the sword which absorbed each of the seven magic blades. Lord Elian cast Detect Spirits at the same moment his own spirit was bound to the blade and he watched it pass into the moonstone.
