It's a Mostai sword, the Hag is actually a Mistress Race Troll and wasn't killed by it, merely turned to stone. Of course pulling it out reverses the enchantment - guess what she thinks about the individual holding the sword?

Its power is to turn living things inanimate, a typical Mostali idea - stops these messy creatures interfering with the world machine.
