Trivia

• This weapon is a reference to the Dark Moon Greatsword from Elden Ring, which has the Moonlight Greatsword skill.
  • The tooltip is also a reference to Elden Ring, being what Ranni says during her ending.
  • However, the Dark Moon Greatsword is another iteration of the Moonlight Sword, a weapon aging back to the first FromSoftware game, King's Field.
