A remnant of the parchment that describes the weapon. Suprisingly, only the paper that encompasses its sketch remains intact...
The Arcani Falsehood has been noted as a modified version of the infamous truthslayer, a weapon of Disarcanian origin. It is generally considered to be a cumbersome weapon, with useless moving parts that render the sword nigh useless. Its only advantage appears to be the impervious metal out of which it was forged.
Nevertheless, only one still remains today. And there have been rumors of some hidden power that compensates for, or even makes use of, its shortcomings. It has been told that the god-betrayer Akar wielded it during his time as an acolyte against humanity, and that it managed to retain its strength and lightness even under the influence of the fabled Trident of Fall, which negated all magical effects of other Arcanian and Disian metals.
Many have tried to recover it in the Northern Wyrmlands upon which he discarded it, but none have returned. Some say that there is a dark crypt or tomb which swallows all human life that walks there, killing adventurers with traps and monstrousities. Others say that the sword itself has killed its seekers, and that it rests upon a pile of corpses of those foolish enough to try and wield it. Whatever the case, there are those who would pay a lot of gold for the return of what may be a priceless relic of the Dark Age of Discord, or the ultimate weapon.
Do you dare to try?
