Weapons that can kill Immortals?
groinkick:
Immortals can be killed on Halloween. However I'm wondering if they can also be killed by special weapons. The Swords come to mind, but what got me thinking about this was Morgan Le Fay's athame. It's supposed to be on par with a Knight's Sword. I'm wondering if that's why Leah wanted it so badly, to kill Mab and become the new Queen. Now Mab has it.... It hasn't been talked about in recent books but I think it will come back in play. The question is how, and why? Will she use it to kill Mother Winter?
groinkick:
I also speculate that the Athame is actually Carnwennan:
Carnwennan, or Carnwenhau ("white hilt"), was the dagger of King Arthur in the Welsh Arthurian legends. It is sometimes attributed with the magical power to shroud its user in shadow. In Culhwch and Olwen Arthur names it as one of the few things in the world which he will not give to Culhwch. Later, he uses it to slay the witch Orddu daughter of Orwen by slicing her in half
knnn:
We don't know when Michael killed Siriothrax, but if it wasn't coincidentally Halloween, I assume that using a Sword is sufficient.

Arthur being contemporary to Morgan, isn't it somewhat difficult for Morgan's athame to also be Arthur's dagger?
Now, the knife Mab had Harry use to sacrifice Slate? That, I could see for Carnwennan.

In the research I was doing last night Morgana wasn't known to have a magical knife. Arthur on the other hand did. Not only that but Morgana was known to steal Arthur's things. She stole Excalibur at least once.
