    STOP PULLING MYSTERIOUSLY WELL PRESERVED WEAPONS OUT OF TOMBS

    • HAVEN’T THESE PEOPLE EVER READ A BOOK FOR FUCKS SAKES

    • STOP FUCKING AROUND. STILL WANT TO FIND OUT, FOR A LAUGH? THERE’S ALREADY A WAY TO DO THAT, IT’S CALLED WAKING UP IN THE 20s.

    • THOUSANDS OF CURSED SWORDS REMOVED FROM GRAVES TO DATE AND NOT ONE USE FOUND FOR THE HORRORS THEY UNLEASHED

    “Yes, hello, there’s surely a reasonable, non-magic explanation for how this sword is as spotless as the day everyone buried it under a giant boulder with its wielder in an unmarked hole. It’s completely fine for swords to whisper about things forgotten and not yet known.” -STATEMENTS DREAMED UP BY THE UTTERLY DERANGED

      Uhh, yeah, and that’s how they know that the best magic swords are in tombs. Where else would you go looking for them?
