"Lord Bishop, I had the townsfolk each try to pull out the Holy Sword yesterday," Father Riddle followed behind Archbishop Yuribe, "and indeed, no one could pull it out. I fear this may truly be the Sword in the Stone."
Archbishop Yuribe, not one to believe in superstitions, glanced at the Demon Hunters behind him who, understanding the hint, stepped forward to draw the sword.
On their first attempt, they came back empty-handed, completely unable to move the Holy Sword.
On the second try, a Demon Hunter pulled out a vial of Hercules' Club, consumed it, and his muscles swelled, instantly making him immensely strong. He tried again... yet still to no avail.
This was most peculiar; Hercules' Club was a powerful Magic Potion that endowed its user with incredible strength, like an ant able to lift objects many times its own weight. Even if they could not pull out the Holy Sword, surely they should have been able to lift the stone?
