Sword of the Broken Hero

Long ago, where demons are attacking humanity and trying to surpass Gods and Goddesses, a magical sword was created by the Gods. His name was Excalibur, he was a sword with a spirit, a sword that can grew with its master, a sword with an ego. Excalibur was made by the combined powers of the Gods, he possesses a power that can even threaten the life of the immortals. 

In that time, Demon Lord Daimonas was growing in an unimaginable rate, he was reaching the power of the Gods. He was beginning to be like them. But, it was obvious that Daimonas will never be contented and will do everything to gain more power, even if he needs to kill the Gods. 

The Gods feared  the Demon Lord Daimonas. They feared that one day he will obtain a power that none of them could handle. They were afraid that the Demon Lord will one day be the reason of their extinction. The Gods know that they need to interfere,  so they have to do something to stop this ambitious being. So, the Gods contacted one of the ancient Gods, the God of faith and destiny, the God named Prepromeno. 

 

The Gods asked Prepromeno, they pleaded to make a prophecy that would stop the Demon Lord Daimonas growth. But Prepromeno neglected their requests. 

"A prophecy can't be created, it appears . If we create a prophecy by ourselves another prophecy will be born. After the prophecy that we created, a new prophecy will emerge, a prophecy that we do not know. A prophecy that can be good, or very bad, something that could be worse than the Demon King Daimonas."

But the Gods insisted and forced the God of faith and destiny to create a new prophecy. 

 "He who possesses the heart of the warrior, the will to protect others will wield Excalibur, save and protect the people, and finally defeat the Demon lord."

The Gods were taken aback, astonished by the new prophecy. The second prophecy did not yet emerge, the warning that the God of destiny and faith was ignored by them. 

 The Gods decided to put Excalibur in a magical stone that only the worthy can pull him out of this stone and wield the power comparable to the celestials. The Hero pulled Excalibur from the stone, and they grew together, becoming stronger day by day until they had the power to defeat the Demon Lord.

 The war began between the Humanity and Demons, The Hero and Demon Lord Demonias Clashed! The fight was so phenomenal, so intense, that every time the power of the Hero and Demon lords intersect, a great earthquake happens. The war did not just end by a day, it lasted weeks, months, and even years until one side experienced victory. Yes! The Hero won, the Demon Lord was defeated. The war ended, no more demons to fear, no more lives to sacrifice, and so peace came.

3 years after the war, the Hero was lost. Without the demons, who is he? Without Daimonas, what is his purpose? Different questions started to appear in the Hero's head, he was starting to loose himself.

He needed a reason to live, a will to go on, a new purpose. Years and years of finding answers to his questions, he finally saw the solution. But it was a path, a path without morality, a path that could change him forever, the path of unworthiness. 

The Hero had chosen a path very different from the path he is taking as a hero. It was a path of never going back. But, even with this fact, the Hero still chose this terrible path in order to find the thing that he lost 3 years ago. The reason to live. 

He was ready, the Hero was ready to sacrifice everything in order to live again. He was ready to sacrifice even his title as a hero just so he could  find the will to live. 

He new, that if he follows the path, he wouldn't be worthy to weild Excalibur anymore, and he couldn't bare to see his friend being forced to do things he doesn't want. So, the hero left, leaving Excalibur to where he was before, the magical stone.

It was a taugh decision for the hero, for him Excalibur is everything. He was his power, his friend, his family, his life. But for him, this life had already ended 3 years ago after he defeated the Demon King Daimonas. 

 Excalibur waited for his friend to take him back. The sword was heartbroken but was also full of hope. Excalibur believed that his friend, his partner will take him back. That the Hero is only lost and will soon find his path and take Excalibur with him as they will start their new ADVENTURE. Excalibur waited, it started by day, days became weeks, weeks became months, months became years, years became decades, and decades became centuries.

 As the hero lost himself, so is his sword. Excalibur waited so long that he forgotten who he really was that he even forgot that he has a soul. Time defeated Excalibur. The mighty sword that was onced wielded by the hero, the sword that possesses a soul is now nothing but an empty sword. Just like the Hero who defeated the Demon Lord Diamonas, he also lost his will to live. 

Until one day, he felt the power comparable to one of his creator, the power of light. He again saw his purpose. A nostalgic feeling that reminded him of himself, it reminded him of his past, his purpose in this world. It was an instinct, an instinct of a sword. He felt the familiar power in this individual. Without the memory of his past, the memory that was stolen from him by time, he only clinged to familiarity and believed that this person should be his master. 

Excalibur surrendered himself to this individual, and little did he know that this individual was already taken by vengeance.
