Serpent-slayer, according to my google-fu skills.

Seems like SE is having a bit of fun.

Edit: I have my theory as to why this might become significant. I don't think Zenos, as such, has the power to slay "Zenos". He was bested by the WoL, and this new entity is his former Resonance-enhanced body plus an Ascian capable of using it to its full extent. My belief, confirmed through recent lore events, is that the host the Ascian takes might limit how greatly they can manifest their power, most likely because their god is in another shard and so for all effects and purposes, they're in a similar situation to extra-planar entities in other fantasy settings. Hence, merging two merely "adequate" hosts into the Ascian Prime would allow Igeyorhm and Lahabrea to avail themselves of this form's greater power. When Elidibus refers to "Zenos"'s adamant form, he's probably referring to something more than just its physicality - after all, Nabriales could augment a regular host to be so powerful as to lift up Moenbryda like a feather, so physical strength alone is childsplay to an Ascian. This might also be why Elidibus is confident that the WoL poses little threat to him as things stand, as he is more fully able to channel his full power in a body he has modified to suit his purposes. So on that basis, the new and probably already weaker Zenos will be hopelessly outmatched. Where I think this blade might become significant, is that it could serve as a vessel to trap Elidibus's aetheric form, on the basis that it was able to hold in Zenos's soul. How that plays out, if it does, is anyone's guess, but it would be consistent with the fact that we need to both trap them and utilise a massive quantity of aether to truly kill them. Could be Zenos gets a "killing blow"; could be he gifts it to the Scions (on the assumption that his motives change and he seeks to make better use of his "second life"); could be that we wrest it out of his cold, dying hands and realise its purpose. Could be, of course, that this is all a red herring and none of this will play out in this manner.
