History

Created on the eve of her demise by the Creator Goddes of Wild Magic, Vaka. Gifted to Ergeaux Lyon, The Oracle of Illusion. The only Artifact to have only been wielded by one person, Ergeaux has been the sword's lone wielder for nearly 2000 years. Seemingly having slight sentience, it refuses to attack if anyone else tries to use it without the Oracle of Illusion's consent, teleporting itself back onto Ergeaux's hip instead.

Dubbed the "Godkiller Greatsword" after the Sundering, Ergeaux has felled countless combatants with this blade, including mortals, gods, and Oracles; he has never been defeated in a one on one engagement. It's transformative properties and high damage make it ideal for covert operations, allowing it to be easily hidden in a coat sleeve or pant leg. Flipping the sword isn't required to transform it, despite popular belief. Ergeaux just likes to show off.
