Whisper the Sword Mysteries (1CP)
Blessing of Swords 1; Simple Miracle -1; Local -1; One Trick -3
There is a secret sword inside of everything. Most people don't know to grab them, not unless you show them how. With but a word, you can unlock the sword mysteries in the heart of the listener. For them, it becomes possible (perhaps not easy but possible) to see the secret swords and draw them out.

Set the Bar (1CP)
Lesser Motion of Emotional Resolution 6; Average Miracle (1 PMP) -2; One-Target -2; Handful of Uses -2; Rare +1
When someone else is dealing with some obstacle they cannot overcome, you can work with them and train them in sword techniques. While working on these techniques, they are also working through some emotional problem, considering it, dealing with something inside of themselves. By resolving their emotional issues and achieving some amount of emotional catharsis, the target of set the bar also learns the technique necessary to solve their problem.

Examples: Teaching a man to cut his way out of prison with meditation and contemplation of the poor decisions that have led him to this place; teaching the wind-cutting slash to defeat an attacking dragon by helping a warrior grapple with her own feelings of inadequacy; teaching the tax-balancing-kata by helping someone resole their own feelings of intellectual inadequacy.
