Wardens of the Sacred Blades ist Teil von Fading Isles.
Recognised as Kings and Queens by other realms, within the Wardens they are known simply as Prophets. Each is the keeper of one of the five sacred blades and commands the stronghold that protects the blade they are sworn to protect.
To wield one of the five sacred blades is the greatest honour bestowed upon a warden. To wield Rìgh Claidheamh, the King of Swords, first and most powerful of blades is an honour without equal.
To wield any of the blades requires the warden to be an exemplar of the virtues of the blade. As such long periods of time can pass with no Wielder recognised.
A Wielder will be granted the blade when conflicts of significance occur. At other times the blade is keep by its Prophet within its sacred stronghold.
Fàidh Rìgh Claidheamh traveled to the south, to the clan-lands of the Tels he found an group of loosely allied realms that spent more time in ritual battles between each other then in organising and strengthening their holdings.
As bid by the Rìgh Claidheamh he travelled to Valereach, oldest and largest of the strongholds among the clans, at that time part of the domain of Tel'Ajin. Taking hold of Rìgh Claidheamh he did strike the gates of Valereach, and the sound of metal upon metal did echo throughout the clan-lands. As one the clansmen of the Tels did fall to one knee, for they had heard the voice of Rìgh Claidheamh, the King of Swords and in it recognised their destiny.
Thus was Luchd-Gleidhidh nam Bannan Naomha, the Wardens of the Sacred Blades, founded with the clansmen pledged to Rìgh Claidheamh under the guidance of the Prophets.
