| It is the creation of a mad god, and carries a curse which transforms anyone possessing it into a prune. Fortunately, the curse works very slowly, and one can use it briefly with no consequences worse than slightly purple skin and a few wrinkles. |

Desirability
The glaive of prune is a straightforward enough artefact: a +4, +12 glaive of chopping. The "prune curse" on this weapon has no actual in-game effect, other than making Zin hate it. Other characters who happen to use polearms can benefit from it in the early- and mid-game; even though glaives are fairly bad weapons, and you'll eventually be better off with a bardiche or demon trident, it's got significant enchantment bonuses and shouldn't be skipped over if you haven't gotten a proper end-game weapon yet.
