The Mourning Engine is the weapon Kethline salespeople stop smiling around. A flywheel actuator in the forte feeds short counter-rotating pulses into a slab-sided blade, helping the edge bite instead of bounce when it meets hard shell or boarding plate. It bucks, howls, and throws hot metal dust back at the user. Forty minutes at a bench follows every ten minutes of serious work; skip that maintenance and the bearing cage starts walking loose, first as a tremor, then as airborne parts.
Military-grade powered weapon; civilian possession requires a heavy-arms license and secured transport.
