The Sword of Aeons is a bloodforged legendary weapon in Fable, in which securing the sword against Jack of Blades becomes a major plot line. The sword is revealed to have an ancient connection to the bloodline of the protagonist.
To be activated, it requires the blood of Archon's bloodline. Once that happens, the key appears, the key is used to activate the focus sites, which reveals the sword. To achieve full power the sword requires the death of at least two people from Archon's bloodline.
The sword itself is acquired in the Chamber of Fate, after Jack of Blades is defeated; in order to wield it, however, you must sacrifice your sister. Or the Hero can cast it into the vortex opened by Jack's death and destroy the sword, giving the Hero the option of receiving Avo's Tear, an equally powered sword (TLC Only). The sword has an attack strength of 550 points in the original Fable, reduced to 230 points in The Lost Chapters.
[edit] History
The Tales of Albion reveal that the Sword of Aeons originally belonged to Jack of Blades, but was stolen from him by William Black, when the latter was sucked into the Void. The sword spoke to Black, promising to help him slay the Court if he surrendered his soul. This was agreed, and Black used the sword to defeat the three members of the Court, and ultimately free Albion.
[edit] Trivia
- The opposite rival sword to the Sword of Aeons is "Avo's Tear" obtainable only if the Hero is good and chose to destroy The Sword of Aeons.
- The Sword of Aeons appears in Fable 2, vaguely in one of the painting in the destroyed Chamber of Fate in the Hero's Guild. There was a bit of a goof though, in the pictures the Hero of Oakvale appears wielding the blade against Jack of Blades, though according to the original storyline the only way to get the sword was to kill Theresa. Seeing as she appears in Fable II that makes this outcome impossible. It is possible this could be Avo's Tear as both swords look almost the same.
