The 'spirit of Turin'... well that at least still exists, you know. And it might not actually be Gurthang. Turin's trademark was the Black Sword in life; why not in death? And did Gurthang itself not speak to him just before his death? (even if it was just Turin going mental, the sword did seem to have a will of it's own). Well it too must have had a spirit then. Bound in life the two were; perhaps too in death.
