Built in the early years, months before his ascension to Knighthood, the blade that was to become known as Calesvol was nothing more than a lifeless hilt that produced a brilliant azure blade when ignited. As the Padawan, and then Knight thereafter had borne the blade in his adventures across the stars - a bond began to form between the sabre and its bearer. One that would echo throughout the Jedi’s many years of service to the Republic, and the ideals of civilization after the corrupted institution fell. From this bond, the crystal within would mature and grow with the bearer, becoming ever more a part of the Jedi that wielded its casing with every passing year. It serves little purpose on the battlefield, but when brandished by the, now, Jedi Master - it resonated within the aetheric realm of the Force. Bathing those around him in the sapphire light of the ignited blade, and the radiance of Arcanus’ valiant soul manifested in reality.
As the Galactic Republic waged a great war against their most hated foes, the One Sith, the Jedi had been forced to adapt to an ever-changing theatre, thus bringing about the modifications in which to better his weapon. To this end, Arcanus had turned his mind’s eye towards the past and delved into the ancient history of the Jedi Order. From the sacred texts, now nothing more than despoiled vellum within the sundered halls of Yutan, the Epicanthix had refashioned his lifeless hilt into the vessel that it would soon become. While the ivory plastoid casing had remained the same, the Jedi toiled for many days and many nights to fashion nearly a dozen immaculate components from the precious, and rare material known to all as Songsteel. The luminescent and light plates were forged from a stave that once belonged to his Teacher, and the man that had bequeathed his surname to his pupil. Though much of the metal was lost in the reforging process, what precious metal had remained after the last hammering blow was struck, would become the unseen tribute to Darion Sunstrider.
Such an act may have been considered forbidden in the eyes of his more traditionalist kin, but Arcanus had seen it as a way to honour the memory of his adoptive father - and act as his emotional bedrock in dire times.
With the casing forged and the interior circuitry enhanced by ancient arts, the once lifeless lightsaber found itself reborn by the hands of its bearer. Though, it wasn’t until the Jedi Master had been lauded as the Hero of Tanaab, that this nameless sabre was given a name. As the brilliant sapphire blade had severed the hands of some Sith Lord, who hailed from the Pancath Reach, he spat forth a curse as his dying eyes locked with the pulsating plasmatic edge. Calesvol was the word that he spoke, again and again, until his dying breath. He knew that the spoken word was from the Panathan tongue of Epicant, but as his mind translated the word to Galactic Basic, it embodied another name entirely. Caliburn. This word held several meanings across the stars, but as the Jedi Master had delved once more into the scriptures of the past, he found that a single phrase was often repeated, time and again, in direct correlation to those aforementioned words. The blade that Arcanus forged, and refurbished with his Master’s memory, would become known as…
The End of Empires.
