Have you ever heard of a doomed sword, Mysteltainn? It's named after ^00F0F0a legendary Young Twig^000000 which had been used to murder Balder the God of Light...
According to the legend, it was a very little weak twig, I have no idea about it anymore than that

[Veeyop]
Whatever the legend, people say there is a way to construct the legendary sword.
The only way a blacksmith who used to live in Prontera knows the method by hearsay, unfortunately he's been gone to nowhere''##

Have you heard the
legend of Mysteltainn?
It's a tree, known for being
the only thing able to harm
Baldur, god of light. In fact,
just a twig from it killed him.

[Veeyop]
Now, I'm not sure if this
is true, but I've heard that
someone actually forged
a sword so powerful, it's
worthy of the name,
''Mysteltainn.''

[Veeyop]
There's only one person
in the world who can forge
that Mysteltainn sword. I...
I think he used to live in
Prontera, but then he moved
away for some weird reason.
