Tenebris

*"Bearer of Light."*
―The Words Carved on the Sword
**Tenebris**, formerly known as **Lightbringer**, is a powerful broadsword wielded by the fallen True Archangel Lucifer. The sword is immensely powerful and one of the most powerful weapons in creation. Although it was originally infused with divine and angelic powers, after Lucifer fell, the energy inside the blade became corrupted.

## Overview

Tenebris was forged from Empyrean Steel and imbued with divine and angelic powers by God. It is the 4th most powerful angelic sword. Lucifer wielded it during the War in Heaven against the True Archangels when they attempted to stop him.

After Lucifer fell, Tenebris's power was corrupted. When he was imprisoned within his cage, the sword was embedded within the darkest chasms of Hell and refused to let anyone but Lucifer, its true master, wield it.

When Lucifer was freed from his cage in Dawn of Revelation and Apocalypse Rising, Tenebris flew into his hand and was wielded by him during the Apocalypse. Upon Lucifer's defeat, its blade was shattered into pieces and scattered across Hell.
