Suger

Suger of Saint-Denis (c. 1081 – 13 January 1151) was a French clergyman, historian and statesman. As the abbot of the royal Abbey of Saint-Denis, he was a friend and personal advisor of Kings Louis VI and Louis VII. When the latter was away during the Second Crusade, Suger ruled France in his stead.

Biography[edit | edit source]

Around 1140,[1] Suger found an Isu Temple beneath the Basilica of Saint-Denis, managed to enter it with the matching key, and discovered the Head of Saint Denis, a lantern containing an Apple of Eden. The abbot used the knowledge gained from the Apple to create the Eagle of Suger, a powerful sword,[2][3] and ordered Parisian goldsmiths to create a gold mount for an antique vase in which he hid the sword.[1] Moreover, his architectural redesign of the Basilica, generally considered to be the first Gothic church,[4] also came from visions induced by the artifact.[2]

Eventually, Suger decided to hide the sword he had created, but left behind a series of clues, allowing the Assassin Arno Dorian to later retrieve the Eagle of Suger from a secret chamber within the Basilica during the French Revolution.[2]
