Maiev Shadowsong wielding an Umbra Crescent.
The Umbra Crescent is a common archaeology artifact. It requires 45 Night Elf Archaeology Fragments to solve. Up to two 
[Highborne Scroll] Keystones may be used to aid in solving this artifact.
Description
This is a circular blade favored by night elf Watchers. This type of weapon was most famously wielded by Maiev Shadowsong, but can be seen even today on night elves such as the Barrow Deeps Watchers on Mount Hyjal. It is likely the weapon you have recovered was magical before it was broken into so many fragments.
In the RPG
This weapon was first named in the RPG book Shadows & Light. Magic & Mayhem, which came out earlier that year, called it a Warden's Moon Sword.
The warden can stamp the name of the person she is quarrying on the blade's handle: in this way, the Moon Sword will show the direction in which the warden's prey is, and will grant to the warden the ability to recognize her target regardless of disguises or attempts to conceal his identity with magic. The warden will also be immediately aware if her target dies while his name is on the blade's handle[1].
