Ending Winter

Ending Winter
The Ending Winter was a calamity caused by the combined power of the Legendary Weapons of Elibe. The Eight Heroes used the weapons against the dragons in The Scouring, only to find that the power of the weapons was so great, that the laws of physics were horribly distorted. For nature to correct t5his imbalance, the Ending Winter occurred. The Ending Winter sapped much of the potential magic energy out of the universe, and both dragons and legendary weapons lost much of their power as a result. Fearing that the weapons' power may inadvertently trigger the apocalypse, the eight heroes hid the legendary weapons of Elibe away in secret locations; all heavily guarded by traps and elemental hazards. The greatest of theses weapons was called the Sword of Seals, which was used to seal away the Dark Dragon by Hartmut. Fearing that the most powerful weapon would be once again wielded, (which it was, by Roy) Hartmut hid the sword in the Shrine of Seals, which also served as Brammimond's shelter as he maintained the seal over the weapons, so that no mortals could touch them.
