Dig a hole as deep as you can, bury it oriented correctly, hide the burial site as best you can. Sooner or later a landslide or earthquake or flood or something might move it, but hey, if we get really lucky, we might have bought a few million years!

New rule: If nobody is holding the sword, there's no longer any "up", and everything just floats about

The support Djin told me the enchantment is written on Read-Only-Magic runes. We can't patch it in, and no one knows the rumplestiltskin recovery key, so we can't disable the indestructability enchantment either to disintegrate it. Honestly, it'll take a hard reboot of the material plane, but Xanathar is online right now and I'm told it's pretty important stuff, and he has the reboot button anyway so take it up with him.

Classic Xanathar, holdin up reboots

That's just classic sales-wizard razzle-dazzle. It had to be programmed somehow and there's likely a service rune on the side for debugging. Read-Only runes can be overpowered with the right equipment

Asking the important questions.

In the meantime, find a way to unenchant it.

nah just leave it in the fridge next to vegetable drawer. No one will touch it

[–] credo@lemmy.world 5 points 3 weeks ago

Just put it in space. Space has never had an up before, might could use one.

Nah, just make a religous cult out of it
