Overview

Ragnarok is an immense sword wreathed in a flawless white fire, a blaze described as destruction in its purest possible shape. The weapon carries two opposing identities at once: it acts as a Scythe of Harvest whose purpose is reviving the lifeless World Tree, and it acts as the blade of the end, the implement through which all things begin again. Two sources feed its existence. From the Dragon King's Heart and from the power held by Shadow Nidhogg, this armament was forged for one task alone, the killing of an Itarim, placing it among the deadliest weapons ever brought into being.

Function

Ragnarok works at the level of law rather than raw strength, which is what makes it so dangerous. The blade is the true principle of destruction made physical, an absolute that overrides and unmakes the laws a god has written. When it met the Itarim of Dimension-1, its flames stripped the deity's authority bare and melted the Jaws of Nothingness, World Predation, which had been chewing through reality. As both harvest and ending, it pulls divine power into itself, then pours that energy out to feed and revive the withered World Tree.

Suho wielded the sword at the height of the Outer God War. One swing reduced thousands of gray angels to dust, and a second tore space apart, prompting the Itarim to conjure the spear Star-Slayer from a collapsed star's heart and the armor Veil of the Void from a condensed nebula's corpse. Every time the god's spear met Ragnarok, matter dissolved down to the atom. Suho's blade shattered that spear even as the enemy's blow ripped through space-time and tore his armor, and fresh strength flowed into him, the will of humanity rendered as experience points that players earned across Outer Universe Dimension-1 inside Ahjin Soft's game. In under a tenth of a second, Antares, controlling Ragnar's body as a berserk dragon, lunged at the god's throat, and Suho followed by bringing the blade down as a thunderbolt of joined white shadow and white fire. The Itarim scattered into light, his world collapsed, and Suho drew the released divinity through Ragnarok to restore the World Tree.
