Isn't that a FedEx quest? Unless the sword is sentient and keeps trying to wander off...?

Which is a key aspect of escort missions - whoever you are escorting has their own ideas, which can cause trouble over and above external parties trying to interfere. 3:10 to Yuma might be a good example if we stick with Westerns... if the fun of a FedEx quest is refused deliveries and missing recipients, absconding and otherwise misbehaving (annoying people, fiddling with things etc.) charges is the fun of escort missions.
