And so, Aonir spoke: he assured his children that, even with him gone, his light would still shine upon Eo. With those words, he formed a steep mountain and pierced it through his side. Drops of his blood fell onto the earth and the Godstones were created - fragments of his power meant to keep the Elements in check. The mountain still stands today, located in what is known as the Gate of Kings - and the people of Eo named it Aonir's Blade to honor the Allfather and his sacrifice.
After the War of the Six Races, once the Guardians had defeated the Fial Darg, they decided that it should be no other place than here for them to find their eternal prison. They locked them inside the caverns beneath Aonir's Blade and sealed their entrance. An order was created to watch over them - the Iron Falcons - and they did so vigilantly, but with time, even they left their guard and the countless years of war weakened the seal on the prison of the Fial Darg - allowing at least one of them to escape.
