Mythology - Excalibur

The history and mythology surrounding the legendary Excalibur has been explored and re-explored hundreds of times by both laymen and scholars, and I claim neither the expertise nor the desire to open that door yet again in search of even a semi-definitive explanation. Suffice to say that Excalibur was the sword of Arthur, potentially historical, definitely legendary King of Britain. Scholars believe the sword originated in Welsh legend and that the current spelling evolved after British historian Geoffery of Monmouth included the sword in his book, The History of the Kings of Britain.

The Excalibur in FF1

The Excalibur is the second strongest sword available in FF1. To obtain it you’ll need to have acquired the adamantite ore, located on the second floor of the Flying Fortress. Take the ore to the home of the dwarves and Smyth the dwarven smith will use it to forge the sword. The Excalibur is usable only by the Knight class.
