Well I'm back, logging another entry. I've got an owner now, but first a little bit more of my history.
After I got abandoned as a "cursed" sword, I ended up falling asleep and waking up in the hands of some (what would modernly be called) Turkish royal. Not the soldierly type of royal either, so I ended up in a room with a bunch of other treasure where I got to figure out what I was and what I could do for about 250 or so years. It more or less sucked in retrospect, being alone all the time. Eventually I got swiped by a Guard Captain and when he had to leave the territory, I made sure I was in his saddlebags. From there I ended up in Italy
