As someone who has found the relic quest chain process tedious enough already I would very much enjoy something simple with 1-2 steps. Trade in 900 poetics tomes for a special soul glaze. Have soul glaze applied. Have to fight the original owner of the weapon for the final light/soul/spirit upgrade the weapon needs to be forever awesome.

What am I expecting is some god forsaken mash up of every other prior part of the quest chain up to this point.
