Lore
“You wish to hear the tale of Excalibur again? Very well, I see no reason to object—'tis only fitting that you and Koh should know the truth by heart.
Ahem. Eureka Orthos' supreme eikon created the sword Excalibur from a nigh-bottomless well of aether. The Allagans dubbed it a trigger weapon, which would allow its wielder to summon divine power at will.
However, it was not to be used for the benefit of Allag's military. It would pierce the heart of the traitor Artorius, breaking his spirit and turning him into the empire's puppet.
After you brought this broken king low, it appears the sword was separated from his body and placed in safekeeping.
In time, Eureka Orthos will cease to function, and breathe its final breath deep beneath the earth. When that happens, it shall live on as naught by a legend of a bygone age.
“The name Excalibur appears in another legend, if I recall. Long after the empire was laid to rest, a story was woven of a king of eld who wielded a sword by the same name.
Was this an attempt to glorify the deeds of Artorius, who in the end became little more than a weapon himself? Or perhaps it was an attempt to paint the truth in more palatable shades, transforming atrocity into heroism through the filter of myth. They say that all things give away before time, after all.
— Koh Rabntah, after obtaining the Excalibur relic weapon
