Why these tropes fit
Halla unexpectedly inherits her wealthy uncle's estate only to face scheming relatives intent on wresting the inheritance from her. While hiding in her bedroom from her family, she pulls an ancient sword from the wall and accidentally summons Sarkis, an immortal warrior imprisoned within the enchanted steel. Bound by oath to protect whoever wields the blade, Sarkis becomes Halla's unlikely guardian against bandits, inquisitors, assassins, and her own in-laws, while the two grow closer and the sword itself emerges as their greatest overlooked danger.
