The Four Swords of Power

There are many, many, significant magical objects that exist and have existed. For example Thor's hammer, and the armor of Achilles'. But since I have been talking about the four elements, I will talk about the Four Swords of power,which have different elemental powers, today. First up, is Joyeuse.

Joyeuse was the sword of Charlemagne, or Charles the Great. Its name means "joyful". It is the sword of Earth. When being used, it glows green. Many components of it have been added and swapped, so the picture is now how it originally was.


Above is Durendal, the sword of Air. It is the twin blade of Joyeuse. It is sometimes called The Indestructible. It is made out of the same stone as Stonehenge. It was the sword of Roland, military leader under Charlemagne. The hilt contained a tooth of St Peter, blood of St Basil, a hair from St Denis, and a piece of Virgin Mary's clothing. It is possibly the sharpest sword in the world. It has the ability to create powerful tornadoes with speeds up to 315mph. Roland thrust the sword into a cliff wall in Rocamadour, France, but the tourist office says its just a replica, which I highly doubt.

That is Excalibur, the sword of Water/Ice. It was the sword of King Arthur. It has two chimeras engraved on its hilt. A red diamond in its hilt gives it power. It can cut through metal and stone. If it cuts a plant or animal, it will immediately freeze and die.

That is Clarent, the sword of Fire, and twin blade to Excalibur. It is also called the Coward's blade, because Mordred used it to kill King Arthur. It is a cursed blade, and whoever wields it will eventually be driven mad from its power. Whatever it touches will become red hot, melt, or burn up with fire.

These four swords were used to create leylines, leygates, and Shadowrealms by the Archons and Elders, all of which will be talked about in future posts. When all four are combined, they will become Aether, the sword of Time. It is very dangerous thing to do, for whoever merges will feel excruciating pain. Even though it is called a sword, it actually is a flat, silver hook. It is extremely powerful. And so, the moral is, use great power wisely.
