Queen Vaelen was the wise and beautiful ruler of Lumenia, Middle Kingdom of the realm of Ammon, and she possessed Elexorien, one of the Ten Swords, at her side on the throne. Elexorien, or Sword of War in the Ancient's tongue, was forged with the talisman symbol of Akeron, the horned spider, on its cross guard, with the shape of its pincer claws holding a symbolic drop of poison venom for any that it slays. Seeing that her once peaceful land was now being decimated, the Queen used the power of Elexorien to unite the Great Lords of the kingdoms of Deylund and Lumenia, a feat theretofore never seen in Ammon.
