Pijali ceremonial sword

A ceremonial sword was used in the coronation ceremonies of the Pijali monarchy on the Inner Rim planet Pijal. During her coronation in 40 BBY, the Pijali Princess Fanry accepted the sacred weapon from her Skykeeper religious leader and swore vows to protect Pijal's independence. The princess then used the ceremonial sword to stab the Skykeeper and violently complete her ascension to the throne as an absolute monarch. Afterward, Fanry took the weapon with her as she fled the Pijali palace's Celestial Chalice temple and wore it at her side while commanding her flagship, the Righteous.
