''Caladbolg'' was rumored to be a magical Sword from Welsh Legend. It was also known as ''Caledfwich'' and may also be an ''origin link'' to The English Legend of The Sword ''Excalibur''. It first appeared in 10th Century AD Literature. Welded by Ailill mac Mata, King of Connachta. The Blade was so powerful that it could cleave the ''tops of mountains off''. It was passed down from Welsh King to King, until – after the last died without Heir, that it disappeared, only to re-appear ''someday''  -  when the ''true'' bloodline of The Welsh Kings is born.
