Mystletainn (pronounced /⁠ˈmɪsəlˌteɪn⁠/^[key][1]; Japanese:ミストルティンMystletainn) is asword introduced inFire Emblem: Genealogy of the Holy War. Also known by the epithet "Demon Sword" (Japanese:魔剣demon sword ormagic sword), it is the weapon once wielded byHoðr ofJugdral'sTwelve Crusaders, bestowed upon him at theMiracle of Dahna after his blood pact with a dragon. The blade is the property of Hoðr's descendants, those in possession of major HoðrHoly Blood, and is sealed to their exclusive use.

History

Originally, Mystletainn was the property of Hoðr's family, the Agusti royal family ofAgustria, but when his major-blooded daughter married into theNordion noble family, the major Hoðr lineage was accidentally passed to House Nordion while the Agusti family was left with only minor blood, which by the time of KingChagall has apparently dissipated. The royal family then gave Mystletainn to House Nordion, in exchange for an oath of unwavering fealty to the crown.^[2]

The blade was eventually inherited byEldigan the Lionheart, the lord of Nordion as of Grann 757 and a friend ofSigurd ofChalphy. He wielded it in combat first to defend Sigurd's base at Evans Castle fromElliot during Sigurd's sortie intoVerdane, and later against Sigurd's forces at the behest of KingChagall, up until his execution by his king. The blade was then passed to his son,Ares, who wielded it as a mercenary servingJavarro inDahna and later in fighting inSeliph's liberation army.

Millennia later, possession of Mystletainn was sought by PrinceOwain ofYlisse, who considered it the "fated mate to his sword hand"; in his eagerness, he mistooka common sword belonging to a resident of theSage's Hamlet for Mystletainn.^[3]
