“The Teo men prefer more physical contests, such as jousting or broadsword sparring. For a woman, however, the syre is perfect. The light blade allows us to make full use of our dexterity and allows us to capitalize on our superior intelligence. ”
The syre is a light sword created in Jaador on Sel.[1] In Jaador, it was originally known as a jedaver,[2] but is now more commonly known by its Fjordell name, syre.[1][3]
In Jaador, the syre was originally a weapon for scouts, but fell into disuse before being reintroduced as a fencing weapon for the nobility.[1] From there, the use of syres spread to Duladel, where they are sometimes known as kmeer.[4] Duladel, however, was generally neutral, and the republican class turned fencing with the syre into a sport rather than using it for potentially lethal duels. Modern day Dulas consider the ability to fence with a syre a requirement for being viewed as a solider, regardless of how many battles a person has won. From Duladel, syres skipped over Arelon, as the Elantrians disapproved of anything resembling violence, but made their way to Teod, where fencing with them became a sport for women instead of men.[1]
When Sarene moved to Arelon, she brought several of her syres with her, and eventually began teaching the noblewomen to fence, thus introducing the sport to Arelon.[1]
Raoden, posing as a Dula named Kaloo, said that though Dulas can duel well, a syre isn't much good against a trained soldier.[5]
