RGA AND EAGLES SQUABBLE OVER ROYAL BLADES
Dateline: 06-
A row has erupted between the Bereny Eagle Elite Fighters and the Royal Guild of Adventurers over ownership of the Royal Blades, the six magic swords traditionally carried by the greatest heroes of the RGA.
The swords were created shortly after the formation of the RGA during the reign of
King Edwin I on the orders of its greatest ever First Royal Adventurer, Princess
Naomi. Since there was always a risk, because of the nature of the duties of those

However with the new swords in its possession, the RGA seems disinclined to compromise.
“The Royal Blades were magically recalled as the old blades belonging to the RGA
where believed lost, their official owners being dead or missing,” an RGA spokesperson
told the Bugle. “The Royal Armourer has delivered to the Baroness six royal blades

“If the BEEF had asked nicely they might have been met with more willingness to offer two blades for their use. However by the very way BEEF has acted, it has shown its true colours and the RGA will not be bullied by them.”
