Who/What am I?
I bear an old name. I am born of those who died to protect. I am of the future-glimpser, the flood-watcher. I leave joy and suffering in my wake. My very form reveals the struggle of my existence. After all, there is no higher power then I.
Edit: I wanted to throw this out there before I get too many guesses. You [i]must[/i] explain your answer. The correct answer with a poor explanation will be counted as [b]wrong[/b]!
Congratulations! As you probably all know by now, yes the answer is the Gjallarhorn. Good job xTrainerYellowx for guessing it first, and congrats to EagleEye and FTG Griffix for stellar explanations!
But this is just the beginning, guardians...

Edited by Griff: 6/14/2015 5:44:57 AMGjally. Reasons -Gjallarhorn is from the Norse mythology. Mentioned in the Poetic and Prose Edda from the 13th century. Its an old name. -Gjally was built from the pieces of those who fell during Twilight Gap, a famous battle between 3 great Fallen Houses and the City. We won at a great cost. -The events of Ragnarok were forseen, the Gjallarhorn was used by Heimdall as a warning. Flood watcher cause the name Gjallarhorn could extend from "horn of the river Gjoll", a river known for wisdom as well. -Joy for the guardian using it, suffering for the poor enemy that got hit with it. -Takes the form of a rocket launcher, a weapon used in wars. A struggle between sides. -Gjallarhorn is used by Heimdall who is a god. No higher power than a god.
