God Weapons are strange beings, indescructible, yet heavily dependent on a wielder to give them senses and, well, to wield them in battle. Sometimes, weapons form groups, much like families, and consider eachother brothers and sisters. In a strange way, weapons also consider themselves male or female... and can fall in love.
A family of male weapons, Muleh a Gadhar axe, Thanatos, a bastard sword and Devil's Razor, a two-handed sword, all fell in love with a female weapon, Alia, a dagger.
One day, Thanatos in a fit of jealousy, made his wielder slay Alia's wielder and had him drop the beautiful dagger over the cliffs into the sea, losing her forever. Dropping a weapon into the sea is the only way of "killing" it, as it will never again find a wielder.
Thanatos' and Muleh's tracks were then lost in history and the weapons disappeared from view. We move on to the elven prince Araniel and his God weapon Devil's razor. Araniel is one of the last elf princes, fighting a losing battle against the Piorad hordes from the snowy north.
Right now, Araniel is gathering some of his surviving fighters to protect the elven capital of Pôle against the invaders. He and his 10 men have to hold the northern gate until reinforcments arrive.
The prince mumbles to his blade: "I surely hope that the reinforments arrive soon, I sense bloodshed and battle fury, my sword."
