I'm a rare American who grew up reading it because I lived in Germany for 10 years.

Y'know just the other day I was at the shop and some moistened bint lobbed a scimitar at me.

Does that make me emperor?

More questions: what if it was a dagger, falchion, or machete? Does the type of sword dictate the office to which one is elevated? Is it affected by who does the giving? Bint vs tart? And how much of a factor does the type of body of water play?
