GUYS I WAS ABLE TO TOUCH A REAL SWORD WITH MY HANDS

uh, to the point. We found a two-handed sword from the fourth (!) century, apparently made somewhere in Lavinavia. The find itself is very strange, because the first two-handed swords began to appear at the end of the 12th century AD, and here, well, this. And even in such a form, as if it had been sheathed about five minutes ago - not a trace of rust or anything like that.

I sketched the base of the blade; Then maybe I’ll draw the whole thing. This squirrel with a hammer is etched into the heel itself, and it looks very stubborn. It doesn’t look like Avalanche motifs, it’s something closer to Beta ones, and even then not completely. A little higher is a notch with silver wire, and here the patterns are typically Avalanche (I’m attaching a photo of a real piece of an ax so you can imagine what it looks like in reality).

Well, apparently the name of the sword is engraved on the blade - Varðveitari, from ancient Lavinavian - “Guardian”. Well, Guardian, let's hope you took good care of your master.
