Sword of Horoth

While the vast majority of all Old World artifacts were either lost, left behind, or burned, there is one with just enough conflicting evidence to lead some to believe it possible that this holy sword, worshipped by the draconin as the holiest of holy artifacts, could have survived, and is still present on Eternity today.

History

On the Old World, there were many draconic great swords. Each one exactly the same. Only one stands out among the millions forged. The one in the hands of Horoth, the savior of all on Eternity, worshipped by the draconin. From the moment it fell into his hands, it never left them. The last it was seen was the day of the rift, when Horoth, and Arotha both rose to fight, and protect the refugees traveling between worlds. In this exodus, many draconin brought great swords with them. While most of these were lost, or destroyed over the course of the First Age of Eternity, some have been found. Many of these reclaimed great swords' owners, or keepers claim that the sword they bear is Horoth's, none of these claims have been proven true. There are a few who believe the sword to be on Eternity, it is largely accepted that the sword was lost when the portal to the Old World closed, and the Old World crumbled.
