This event was organized by a wizard named Valious, some claim he was the first blue mage though generally Merlin is accepted as the first. It is a legend and appears as bedtime story in the Middle Kingdom though only few know the whole story and few actually believe it. Many (particulary humans) went looking for the powerful sword of the legend but none returned or gave up search.
The Legend
Valious wanted to create a material representation of a covenant between the different races and infuse it with the power to protect that covenant. However the bond between the races was not so close but those present on the meeting where willing to help creating the object in the hope that it would make their bond stronger. There where Elves, Dwarves and Humans at the start but later other factions were involved.
In the Bay of Eternity they forged a sword, the nameless blade was made out of an alloy consisting out of rare materials with magical qualities, among those materials there would have been one coming from another world which some would call a Sphere though there would have been Portals that connected to Legonia (which contests the defenition of a Sphere as the other world functions as an expansion of Legonia)
After almost a year in an old temple the sword was completed, it's powers were beyond description, the one human present on the meeting made Valious realize that the blade could be used for destructive purpuses also and that the existence of it was a danger itself for evil minds could find out about it. Eventually he decided to absorb the power of the blade into 8 elemental stones which would be hidden throughout the country and form a defense.
However, the blade still had a power of its own, a power that came from the approval of great eye watching the events, a god. This power was not noticed and it is not known what exactly it does.
Valious designed tests and left clues on how to find the elemental stones but he could not finish his job, When they wanted to melt and forge the blade additional help was needed, a flame hot enough to melt some of the metals was needed and could not be generated by magic or ordinary fire. The only creature at that time capable of performing such flame was a demonic fire dragon, it is not known how exactly the members of the meeting convinced him to lend his flame but after the completion of the blade the dragon came to the temple to take the sword for his own. It was then that the wizard Valious cast such great spell upon the Temple that the Dragon would never be able to find it again, even while he knew where it was. But the Dragon was furious, eventually he intercepted Valious and challenged him, the fight became legendary but the connection with the blade became forgotten. The wizard was killed and the dragon returned to his cave in Dragonia Vulcania.
