While PSIV's translation is much better than the previous entries, I need to go back and check that part of PSIV. The Compendium doesn't really state what's in the sword exactly. Though, if they just inhabit the cave itself I can imagine the spirits in the cave being really bored after Rudy left with the sword. I imagine some sort of Monty Python-esque exchange occurring. ;p
I can envision Chaz pulling a "Blue Rogues" style special. "Blue Rogues" being a special attack in Skies of Arcadia that calls up every member of the player's pirate ship crew for part of the action. Hm, I sense a topic in this...
That'd be pretty awesome.
