Binary Sunset · Dawn

A customised Maelstorm hilt, made and installed by Vader’s Vault. Gold acanthus scrollwork is etched across a gold body, with rose-gold accents at the vents and pommel. Inlaid mother-of-pearl panels sit in an open, windowed emitter, which is set with a diamond. A sculpted gold spine runs the length of a white leather grip. Inside, CFX electronics drive a neopixel blade.

Dawn is the bride’s saber of the pair named Binary Sunset; its partner, the groom’s saber, is Dusk. Where Dusk recalls Tatooine’s twin suns setting, Dawn recalls them rising: two lights, two blades made to stand side by side.
