In both Vere & Akielos they use longswords, and that’s Laurent & Damen’s primary weapon. In Akielos soldiers sometimes use a spear or trident in which case they have a secondary short sword like a xiphos. Damen’s also proficient on a heavier two hander, but longsword is his main.

@cspacat I've got a question on the swords used in Captive Prince. I'm designing a tattoo and want to get things correct. What types of swords are used in Vere & Akielos and what did Laurent & Damen use in the series? Any insight would be greatly appreciated! Thank you! 😁💕
