Day 18
One thing that makes the Kimian military so deadly (at least, within the Empire's borders) is the carmot gambeson. This enchanted, padded coat adapts to incoming forces, making it hard for "barbarian" weapons to penetrate.

Day 17
The ifrit binding rings forged by Kir Nikbin were intended to topple the Archon. Each ring enslaves an ifrit to the wearer's will and empowers it with a Philosopher's Stone, effectively creating a sapient tactical nuke.
