History:

Given by SARAN on Empire Day 2501 to Kyarlin, Champion of Heaven, on Foundation of  the House of Heaven.  Said to be the same Sword as Cumarel of Mastrin, lost in Decus XXXI of Mastrin's ill-fated Dungeon Expedition of 2436.  The Bound Angel claims to have been newly incarnated in 2501, and does not remember any former history of the Sword itself.
