When bards tell stories of great weapons now lost to time, the Shard Spike is a favorite subject. This remarkable weapon is rumored to have existed around the time the [[dragon]] gods left [[Layonara]], approximately 500 years before the great [[Cataclysm]]. Save that it is elven in origin, almost nothing is known about the production of this weapon. Stories of the Shard Spike tell only of the deeds it performed.


The Shard Spike is said to resemble a rather simple elven spear with a solid oak handle and a lightweight metallic head. As any good illusionist can tell you, though, appearances can be deceiving. The spear head was made from several tiny pieces of adamantium, layered on top of one another and each infused with magic as the spear was built. This process is thought to have taken an elven smith an entire lifetime to finish. The identity of the elf who dedicated his centuries to molding every segment to fit seamlessly onto the last, though, has been lost to time. The means, either magical or mundane, which were used to bind the components of the spear together and produce the extraordinary weapon of legend are the subject of fierce debate, but little more than speculation exists.
