In the final duel in SAO between Kirito and Heathcliffe, the Dark repulser's blade snapped when it struck Heathcliffe's shield. In the light novel short story (warmth of the heart), Lisbeth said that she had fragments of her heart within that sword when she made it, and that she thought that the sword would break after accomplishing its goal. This was probably around the time that it actually broke! Does this mean that Lisbeth has failed Kirito and Asuna succeeded as it was her rapier that killed Heathcliffe in the end? Or something else?
