Sword of Freyr

In Norse mythology, the sword belonging to Freyr, a Norse god associated with sunshine, summer, and fair weather, is depicted as one of the few weapons that is capable of fighting on its own. Since Freyr gave up the sword to Skírnir for the hand of the giantess Gerðr, he will die at Ragnarök.
