Lore

The Starforge was created in the distant past by the Watchers of Decay to bind and imprison The Elder within the dream world. The Elder could not be killed, but the sword would keep its body and spirit - a shade - separated. Ages later, the shade detects the presence of a person in the dream world, an Archon by the name of Valdo Caisarius. The shade befriends Valdo, teaching the ways of shaping and how to reassemble the map device. Finally, it lures Valdo to his prison and asks him to free the Elder by pulling the sword out of his chest. Valdo refuses, and barely escape the dream world from the Elder's wrath.

Before he could devise a way to banish the Elder for good, High Templar Venarius demands Valdo to reveal the secrets of the dream world. He refused and was imprisoned and publically shamed, and it wasn't until Venarius threatened to kill his daughter when he gave into his demands. They enter the dream world and tempted with promise of power, Venarius pulls the Starforge out of the Elder's chest, freeing it.
