The Six Sacred Swords
シックス寺院剣 Shikkusu Jiin Ken The Six Sacred Swords
Long ago, there was a belief in Ancient Egypt that the Gods themselves had come to rule over them.They were, in actuality, a group of Sorcerers that had gained powers similar to the legends of the Egyptian Gods and traveled there after finding each other to take what seemed to be theirs.
Becoming Divine and Arcane Pharoahs, they quickly built Egypt into a thriving country. Their names were Ra, Osiris, Hathor(Sekhmet), Isis, Ma'at and Amun. They took names from the Egyptian religion based upon their powers. Ra was a Divine Sorcerer, and said to be the strongest of the six. Knowing the true name of an ancient power that he embodied, known only as the 'Power of the Phoenix'. Osiris, an Arcane Sorcerer and a deadly being indeed.Hathor was a Twilight Sorcerer, having two powers and being known as the only Neutral Pharaoh among them. Isis, a Divine Sorcerer who was known as the wisest of them. Ma'at was a Divine Sorcerer who had a strong sense of Justice. Amun was a Divine Creationist, a rare power that was similar to one of the Arcane Sorcerers who would eventually ruin the world. Together, they forged an Empire out of Egypt, each of them forging a 'Sacred Sword' out of their own powers as a scepter.
But the others were jealous of Ra's power. They conspired to overthrow him and take his sword, said to have the same power as he did. Isis convinced Amun to create a venomous snake, and Osiris and Hathor led him into the trap that left him in critical condition.Ma'at was unknowing of this plot.
Isis told Ra to tell her of his power's name, so that she could heal him. Sensing their plot, Ra and Ma'at took up arms against them, causing a massive battle that ended with Ra using his true power to kill them all and take a large chunk of Egypt with them, leaving ruins behind which were said to house the Six Sacred Blades.
For over a thousand years the ruins remained untouched, now hidden in The Ancient Ruins. It was said that the true heir to Ra's power, his direct descendant, would one day uncover the six ancient weapons and use them to fulfill their destiny as the rightful Pharaoh of the land. These blades will not activate but for the rightful owner. They all seem to be now linked by Ra's true name, which was the secret to unleashing their full power. Each sword held it's own regenerating mana supply, able to recover after exhausting it's use without the user feeding their own energies into them.
