Arondight is one of the Holy Swords that was forged through the means of magic and alchemy by those who reached the territory of God.[1]

Summary[]

Arondight is one of the thirteen swords of the Knights of the Round Table, a band of knights led by the Legendary King, King Arthur, of Camelot. It was wielded by the strongest knight of the Round Table, Sir Lancelot du Lac. Considered to be the sister sword to both Excalibur and Galatine, the Holy Sword of Sir Gawain, Arondight possesses similar characteristics to the two as a holy sword as well as their overwhelming power. However, Lancelot's madness later on in his life, due to his failure to prevent Camelot's downfall, cursed the sword and caused it to become a Demon Sword in the process.

While it has no known wielders in the present time, in the past, it was used by the former leader of Khaos Brigade, Satanael, as a fail-safe method in order to deal with Galatine and Canis Lykaon if such a situation became necessary.[2]

Trivia[]

  • Arondight is one of the unique legendary swords with a dual Holy-Demonic nature, mirroring its original wielder's descent to madness.
  • Its Holy-Demonic nature is reminiscent of Yuuto Kiba's Sword of the Betrayer, which is also a Holy Demonic Sword, unlike Arondight however, the Sword of Betrayer has balanced the Holy and Demonic natures within it.
