History

Fjellbryter was forged by Murdaeg Gamduson in the forge of Fargrim Thorinson. It was given, along with a matching sheath comissioned by Fargrim, as a gift to Gunnar Thorson, Alle of the Hirð of Jarl Asger.
Gunnar earned the right for Murdaeg to use the Patriarch's forge by invoking the Rite of Sigin-tarâg and besting Fargrim in a three hour rock smashing competition. Its name, meaning "Breaker of Mountains" marks Gunnar's victory.
Upon returning to Buskagar with Fjellbryter, Gunnar immediately told the people of Buskagar the tale of his contest with the Lord of the Mountain, but when he presented his prize to his mentor, Thurmond Torbjörnson, the older warrior stripped his student of it and left him, saying that the sword is not what he needs and that he would show him on the morrow.
The next day, Gunnar met Thurmond under a sacred oak tree with Murdaeg as witness. Thurmond returned the longsword before attacking Gunnar with his shield. He struck Gunnar thrice, punishing him with both bludgeons and lightning, while Gunnar failed twice to land a blow with Fjellbryter. Bloodied, Gunnar swong a final time. His attack hit, but it landed in Thurmond's hand, and his fingers did wrap around the blade. Looking in Gunnar's eyes, Thurmond pulled it from his hand and hit him a fourth time, knocking him unconcious.
After rejuvenating Gunnar, Thrumond informed him that it was not the sword he needed, but the trust of his companions, which he nearly lost by deserting them to go to Fargrim's Hold.
After drinking the vision mead of knowledge, Gunnar woke in Thurmond's bed with Fjellbryter by his side.
Gunnar did not use Fjellbryter when ambushed by
