It is near the end in a Min PoV. RabidWombat Send a noteboard - 09/11/2009 05:58:01 AM
Not that I think you're wrong, but where was it said the sword was found under the sea? Can you tell me which chapter?

I've seen people say this on other boards too, but never came across it in my read. Either I'm totally dense, or the Dark One has tampered with my book!


It is near the end in a Min PoV. It was found submerged beneath a statue. Personally, I don't think it was a sea. This is largely due to a mythological reference to Excalibur. There are two stories about how King Artur found Excalibur; the first is the sword in the stone and the second is that King Artur obtained it from the Lady of the Lake. This second tale has Excalibur found later in King Artur's career and its scabard has magical properties as well. Interestingly enough, Excalibur was marked on both sides with a griffin instead of a dragon.

You're saying everything must be either literal or metaphoric? - 09/11/2009 02:35:38 AM 993 Views

Obviously?? Maybe you could explain further as it isn't obvious to me - 09/11/2009 05:01:42 AM 1031 Views
Rand saw it when the Horn of Valere was blown in book 2 and the ghost of Hawkwing had it *NM* - 09/11/2009 02:08:50 PM 493 Views
Maybe I'm stupid, but why would Hawkwing have been using Lews Therin's sword? - 09/11/2009 06:40:41 PM 903 Views
Good luck finding Lews Therin with a sword - 09/11/2009 07:02:40 PM 902 Views
