The Shatter Swords

It is said that the Eternal weapons were given to the first leaders, representing the peoples of Adia.   The Raaknoid were given five Eternal Blades, the Bjorn was given three, the Duanine were given three, and the Dwarves were given two. It was these peoples that were to protect these Eternal weapons and use them to find the demonic hordes during the Abyssal war.   Four of these Eternal blades were lost to time, as they were never found after the Abyssal war. Three, however, were corrupted and twisted when the Raaknoid fell, where most pledged their allegiance to the Abyss. By doing so, the abyssal corruption took over, tainting the swords, and shattering the eternal bonds in which they held. By doing this, the swords fragmented, or in some cases stressed, twisted, and turning into something fitting for its corrupted wielder.

The first Shatter sword was corrupted when the Raaknoid Trensaph took the pact with the Abyss. His brightly orange colored sword became jagged and burnt, tainting his divine spirit magic blade. The Fire Eternal faded from the weapon, presenting a new twisted form of its once glory.  
  The second Shatter Sword was corrupted when Trensaph's brother Eetka made his pact with the Abyss. His Eternal short-sword twisted and morphed from bright blue spirit magic into a dark red. Eetka's Arcane spirit magic that he once knew was no longer and instead replaced with demonic spirit magic that sizzled through his newly found Shatter sword.   The third Shatter Sword was given to Etch'Dekah, the youngest and the largest of the three brothers. When he made the pact with the Abyss, the counsel of Eraebus was formed. Etch'Dekah's green spirit magic Eternal sword changed from green to purple, to bright pink. The corrupted death magic surged with pink threads through and around the Shatter sword, bending it, and curving it, until the fragments of the blade broke, yet still kept its form intact. The once Eternal blade edge faded and emerged forward was death's bite, the last of the Shatter swords.
