I'd like to moderate my first response. As part of the description of the ability is 'Sword', the Narrator can use that to decide when the ability might not be usable. Deciding that it has been (temporarily) stolen or leant to an ally is an example. However, the Narrator should not often arbitrarily deprive the player of an ability (which a Magic Swords is, just an ability with a particular prop and special effects) by fiat.
