User:King Repeater (WG4575)/Story of Chillrend

Once in the land of Tamriel, there was a sword. A hero's sword. A sword thats bite was cold. This sword was Chillrend. I, Sigurius Untinus, will document the recorded history of Chillrend.

It all began long, long ago in the land of the Cold. The sword was forged out of ice and frost. The creators of this weapon were known as the Frustiers. Their king wielded Chillrend. This race is now extinct, which is why you have never heard of them. Now, back to the sword. The sword fought in many wars. However, one day in 1E 22, the king was struck down by the army of fire. Their kingdom melted, and Chillrend was lost.

However, in the next era of Tamriel, it was found by Indius, a poor beggar. He kept the weapon. Then he went to war. The sword served him well, defeating many enemies and saving his life quite a few times. His skill in battle was noticed by many daedric entities, who sought to have the weapon for themselves. Finally, Indius was slain in his sleep by what was described as a "moving shadow". It is still unknown as to what killed him, but reports say that Chillrend was taken from his body.

Chillrend's next owner was a wizard by the name of Krackarov. He studied the sword for years and years. Finally the daedra put a curse on the sword. Whomever owned the sword would go insane, and finally die. Krackarov was affected by this curse. He killed anyone who stepped into his lab. Eventually, he went on a killing spree, killing his family and friends. After realizing what he had done, he went into his lab and locked the door. A nearby guard said he heard stabbing and screaming from the lab. The next day, they found Krackarov dead in his lab.

As you may notice, this sword has a much more ominous backstory than you may have thought. However, it takes a turn for the better when our next owner gets it. This owner's name was Ulraci, who was a hero of his homeland long ago. He was spoken to by a entity only known as "The Sight". The Sight explained that the only way the curse could be removed from the sword was to bring the sword back to where it was made. Ulraci accepted the task and was gone for 1 year, traveling to the Cold. Everyone thought he died. But, a year later he came back. He married a woman named Inra and they lived their live calmly with no disturbances. Eventually, they both died of old age and Chillrend was taken into a museum, not to be seen for quite a while.

Our next owner was Valus Odiil, who bought the museum. Finding the sword, he took it for his own and replaced it with a almost exact lookalike. Valus Odiil kept it for a long time, until he asked a mysterious person to help his sons do some hunting. After returning with both sons alive, Valus gifted the sword to this person. It is unknown what the person did with it, but we do know that he was eventually slain whilst doing a great service to all of Tamriel.

Our final owner is Mercer Frey, member of the Thieves Guild. After going to a auction, he saw the sword and won it. Keeping it as his family heirloom, it was in his basement for a long time. After a while, people noticed Mercer was never coming back. A search was conducted of his house, and Chillrend was gone from it's display case. The unknown owner is still trying to be found. However, many people have reported a person that comes in times of need. His voice is a weapon. And from a guard that bumped into this man said that he was carrying a sword, made of ice and frost.
