Artifact 5 of 5: The Dagger Of Apollo.

Details:
The final and most elusive item is the dagger of apollo, legendary is it's origin and it once belonged to a god who conquored entire worlds.

But, in doing so the dagger itself became unseeable, no-one knows where it is, no-one knows if the legend of it appearing inside the Farckonian temple to the true heir is true or not.

This item is an item Ahriman never wielded, but perhaps it is the most powerful of all, Ahriman is obsessed with finding it.

The legend is important, legend tells that the lone warrior who doesn't want it but requires it shall be able to retrieve it.

This item apparently holds the power to split a soul so far, that it would cause the man or god or immortal that was stabbed with it, to burst into flames and take everyone who followed them, with them into death's grip, but if a man of pure heart is stabbed with it, then he would destroy the whole race he was a part of, if he was man, then the race of men and women would perish, if god, then the gods would perish, but if the man was evil, then the evil one stabbed would take there army with them.

The Dagger is the most powerful blade to ever be forged, it has the ability to destroy worlds for anyone who wields it.

This is the final item Orion must possess, but once he does, something else will come to be.

Artifact 4 of 5: The Trident Of Posiedon.

Details:
Also one of the items Orion must possess, the trident holds an ancient power, that can control weather, it is first read about in the first book, but something has changed, something yet to be seen.

The great god of atlantis once wielded this trident, it was passed down until it reached a man called Posiedon, but he was killed by Ahriman, who took the trident and used it to sink the city of Krellapa into the north bound ocean, Ahriman though, lost control of the trident, it became too powerful for him, and so it left him, now the trident is legend, rumored to be in Atlantis, but not seen in centuries, the trident is perhaps the most important relic of a forgotten kingdom, a kingdom that in today's world is just myth, but this trident is still out there.

Orion must find this weapon in the third story's second part, tk3: trident of atlantis, but if he finds it is yet to be detirmind, if he can survive that long, which with the hunt Ahriman has placed on him and the bounty that awaits the one who kills the heir, i guess time shall tell if he makes it or not.

Artifact 3 of 5: The Fire Skull

Details:
Guarded in the city of Habbassa, the fire skull connects with the sword of light, giving the wielder more power, power able to kill an immortal or return a soul to a corrupted.

This skull however is deadly to anyone who attempts to escape with it, it is connected to a man born in fire, a man called Fireheart, one of Ahriman's corrupted few, Fireheart gave his soul to Ahriman in return for the return of his wife and daughter, but he was betrayed.

The skull is first mentioned in the quest for the sword, by Tebek to Orion, it is one of the most important pieces.

Ahriman found this skull in a locked casket with the body of a man called "Ryna", other then what is described, little is known about the fire skull, the power is secret and many believe that it forms different powers when others possess it.

With Ahriman it was a dark relic, used to burn cities to the ground, but in the hands of a man with intentions of good, it could become something different.

Artifact 2 of 5: The Sword Of Light

Details:
Ahriman's favourite weapon is also the most seeked weapon of all, the sword of light otherwise known as the sword of serenity is a weapon which can give power to anyone who wields it.

The sword however, just like a man, has a soul of it's own, if a man of light and good faith wields it, then it will do good, but if a man of darkness and evil wields it then it can destroy entire cities.

This is the first item Orion must find, one piece of the dark god's soul, a sword which needs no introduction to it's rightful master, this sword first belonged to king Kertha, or as he was known by his people "King Killer", Ahriman came into possession of it just before the battle of porthan, he became attached to it, therefore it became another part of his soul and also contained a piece of his powers.

Artifact 1 of 5: The Amulet Of Grakhan

Details:
The Amulet is one of five symbols which can kill Ahriman, although not a weapon, the amulet holds the power of Ahriman inside of it, it is an elusive item, one of which has not been seen in over a decade, since the second celestial war.

Many believe this item to be the most important of all, many call it "The Power Dagger" and other's call it "The Amulet Of Light", but it shall always be known as the amulet of grakhan, the legendary warrior king who created it.

It holds the power to take a man's soul, divide it and place it in what he holds most dear.

This is the case, Ahriman is locked away inside of the amulet and sent into the underworld, his soul now lies in four pieces, the sword of light, the fire skull of light, the trident of posiedon and the dagger of apollo, four items that he once possessed, four items that Orion must find in order to save his kingdom and his people.

Forged: Age X, Year 4597, by Grakhan.

It's Legend: Once used by Grakhan himself to take his foe's soul(s), the amulet was lost in the bearing sea for 30,000 years, it was found by Ahriman when he was a child, swimming off the coast of hercules with his brother Ormazd, he became obsessed with the amulet and decided to use it's power to conquor lands, but in doing so he became a part of the amulet, forging his soul to mix with it.

During the battle of Porthan in the age 1, year 1,739, Ahriman lost the amulet, it remained hidden for 13 decades before a young persian native found it, it was passed around for centuries until the second celestial war, where it come under the control of Orion, who used this item to find the great wizard, Wesirt, and help him with Belazar Juda Ba'ir, the man who killed his parents, Wesirt told Orion that it was needed to hinder Ahriman's soul, who was released before he knew of it's power, Orion returned to trap Ahriman's soul and then it was given to Wesirt.

Since that faithful day, no one has seen it, some believe Wesirt destroyed it in order to trap Ahriman, some say he kept it, other believe it also became irrelivant to Wesirt, betraying him and falling into decay, but one thing is for sure, Ahriman must never find it, if he does then he shall not need to wait for the prince to return or die.
