Agiel

From Sword of Truth Wiki

The Agiel is the torturous weapon of a Mord-Sith.

An Agiel looks to be a simple, red leather rod that hangs from a thin golden chain that is tied around the wrist of a Mord-Sith. An Agiel is in fact a weapon powered by the bond to the Lord Rahl and when used by the skilled hands of a Mord-Sith, is capable of giving extreme amounts of pain. An Agiel is powerful enough that a particular touch can give instant death.

Mord-Sith are trained at the end of an Agiel and taught every possible form of torture. Once a Mord-Sith has passed her trials, she employs the same Agiel she was trained with on her victims. Once an Agiel has been used on someone to give pain, that person can never come in contact with that particular Agiel again without feeling its sting. Therefore a Mord-Sith is in constant agony each time she uses her Agiel on her victims.

People who find themselves at the wrong end of an Agiel, rarely live through the ordeal.
