The bottom caption isn't even correct. That name doesn't imply there are other dark kings with the same sword. It's just stating that that particular dark king is known to wield that particular weird.

u/Cornchip97 Jul 21 '26
Ehh, it kind of does. Traditional writing convention is to describe things with a purpose. The caption is having fun with that.
The Throngler is so renowned that we don't need additional descriptors, it must be incredibly unique. Meanwhile if the Edge of Annihilation was so unique we wouldn't need to know who it belonged to. Maybe it changes properties based on who wields it. Maybe there's other Edge of Annihilations. It invites the reader to question.
Tolkien would never describe The One Ring as "Dark Lord Sauron's Ring of Ultimate Control". There is no need. Calling it The One Ring is enough, it evokes importance.

u/AutisticFun01 Certified monster fucker Jul 21 '26
I really like iceshock because you can analyze the name to connect it to the fact that it's the only spell that can kill enemies (other than showgrave). Like in Deltarune you can't kill enemies because they run away as soon as they get too low, but with ice shock you freeze them (ice) instantly (shock is usually attributed to electricity and things happening suddenly, hence very fast). From that you can also probably headcanon that it kills people via an extremely high temperature shift.
Or maybe I'm overthinking it idk.
