CrosSword, of daily distraction and loyal streak🙏🧩

A puzzle of mysterious origin inscribes itself upon the face of this blade each day, and as you turn it around in your hands, you notice something etched upon the other side:

DOWN

1: A month long festivity, the blacksmith's hammer can be heard in the air as the daily blades are forged.

4: Once dull, I breathe life into your edge.

6: Words carved into a monument, runes carved into a blade. Can be split into three words - (interior)(an actors anchor)(a charged atom)

7: Quenched in this when fresh from the forge, used to care and maintain a blade as its life continues.

9: A blade that has felt the touch of magic within its steel. Perhaps it has acquired a new ability with this blessing.

12: The incorrect answer to the question “should I get a sword?”

ACROSS

2: To push something to perfection.

3: One in a million.

5: Are you looking here for a clue? What do you expect to find?

6: Blood of the Earth.

8: Any good adventurer has a spool of this laying around.

10: A blade of plasma and and shield of light? This all sounds very hi-

11: The forge of the household.

13: Wildly impractical for a sword, but looks lovely.
