Range Touch
Duration Concentration, up to 1 minute

Materials a sword with a fine zircon set into its pommel worth at least 75 gp

You bring a deadly consciousness into a non-magical blade that you touch, animating it as flying sword (pg 20 of the Monster Manual). You can issue verbal commands to the sword on your turn (no action required), and the sword will understand you, performing your requested action to the best of its ability. If it receives no commands, the sword defends itself from attacks, but otherwise takes no actions.
