Caleb Puff's Longsword

The blade that Caleb Puff wielded in his final moments during the Ark Event is an item of great religious significance to those who believe strongly in the Eligni pantheon of Saints. This weapon, lost to time but believed to still exist somewhere within the Belt, is held with great reverence and symbolised the great heroism and bravery that Caleb exhibited that faithful day when the Ark collided with the Moon and shattered it into the Belt we know today. Many adventurers, warriors and guards have a small trinket in the shape of a longsword, cast from electrum, in order to carry around the sentiment of bravery, to remind themselves to put others first, and as a small prayer and hopefully blessing for courage and safety from danger. Though it is unknown where the blade lies today, many speculate that it may have inherited some kind of special powers, especially considering that those who worship the Saints tend to find themselves with Divine magic at their disposal.   Many adventurers have gone searching for the fabled longsword, though none have yet found its location. Sadly, there have been a number of reported fakes across the years. Many smiths have also attempted to recreate this blade, hoping that maybe Caleb himself will bless the weapon with his own powers, but these efforts have, so far, been in vain. It seems unlikely that the blade will ever be found, as witnesses claim that Caleb was struck by the tip of the Ark, likely having crushed the blade in the process. Regardless of this fact, some devotees relentlessly hunt for this artefact, believing it will grant them immense power, or even have the ability to bring the Father of Layman's Belt back from the beyond.   No one knows if it will ever be found, but if it ever is, it's likely that Granny Brooks would be given it.
