Xawjun's Respite

A simple plateau of bare earth and rock high atop the peak of the Diurnal Spire. The plateau is ringed with weather worn statues of heroes long past. They are: In the center of the plateau is a slew of different weapons, each stuck into the ground at odd angles. Each weapon looks unique, and each are clearly incredibly magical.
 * A bald headed human wielding a large greatsword wearing platemail (Emanuel Ironsides)
 * A tall lithe elf wearing a cloak holding an ornate longbow
 * MORE TO BE ADDED

The Respite is guarded by the Paragon of Xawjun, a spirit of a long dead warrior. None of the weapons may be removed from the ground while the Paragon is still present. The Paragon has short cropped hair, looks like it could be either male or female, and wears a suit of light mail. The eyes glow a bright blue and a faint blue aura surrounds it. It hovers a foot or two off the ground at all times.

When approached, the Paragon is floating serenely its eyes closed and head bowed, its arms in front of it with one hand grasping its other fist, as though in prayer. Upon approach, it will look up and a voice strong and loud rings out "DO YOU INTEND TO CHALLENGE FOR A COMPANION?". Should anyone respond yes, or try to remove a weapon from the ground, the Paragon Encounter will start.

Reward Weapons

 * Stormking's Retort - +2 Great Axe, once per day the wielder may make a Lightning Bolt attack with DC16. The creature nearest the end point of the attack has the axe embedded in them (DC16 Str Check to remove). The wielder may use an action to recall the axe to them, as long as they are within 100 ft of the axe. When recalled, make another Lightning Bolt attack, with the axe's original as the start point and the owner as the end point. The owner does not suffer the Lightning Bolt attack, but rather wields the axe after recall.
