Editing Aurora blade (section)

==Characteristics==
The aurora blade is a Western-style longsword with an unusual blade and hilt. Its blade appears to be made out of an unusual green metal with a gold fuller in the middle decorated with alternating crescent-moon designs and red gemstones. The center of the crossguard features a circular design with another red gemstone in the center and rays all around, reminiscent of a sun, and the quillons have gems on each side, as well. The hilt is blue and has a red gemstone on the pommel. In ''Heroes II'', the sword is mostly made out of golden metal with green gems instead of red, and a red hilt.

When the aurora blade reappeared in ''IX'' and ''XI'', it became an upgraded version of the cautery sword instead with a purple blade. ''[[Dragon Quest XI]]'' introduced a [[Greatsword (weapon type)|two-handed version]] of the aurora blade called the [[brilliant blade]].
