History

Excalibur was created by Hephaestus, "the maker", during the Isu Era to bring about the end of the War of Unification. It first wielder was the Aesir Isu Tyr, based on what was seen in the bonus clip shown after all the anomaly challenges in assassin’s creed Valhalla are completed, until his possible death along with the rest of the Aesir during the great catastrophe which they called Ragnarok. At some point after; it was later taken to Britain.[2]

By the 6th century, the Sword had become lodged in a stone. In time, it was pulled out by the young Briton leader Arthur, who, with backing from the local chapter of the Order of the Ancients,[3] used the blade to rally his people in defense of their lands against the invading Saxons.[1] However, he was later betrayed, ultimately leading to his death, and the location of the sword was lost to history.[4]

Nearly three hundred years later in the late-9th century, Excalibur was recovered and claimed by the Viking Eivor, a member of the Raven Clan who had left Norway's endless wars and lack of resrources to settle and start a new life in England.[3]
