Broken Sword Life Lamp

Broken Sword Life Lamp is a life lamp in Beyond the Timescape. Xu Qing is the principal character associated with it, while its catalog entry follows demonstrated use and custody rather than assuming that proximity means permanent ownership. (Chapters 515, 530)

History

Recorded appearances

The item is first identifiable in Chapter 515. Its later record spans 4 chapter-level appearances in the supplied corpus, with evidence including Chapters 515, 523, and 530. Those appearances establish its continuing narrative relevance without treating every retrospective mention as a new transfer or use. (Chapters 515, 523, 530)

The verified custody history is concise: Acquired and incorporated by Xu Qing during the Sea-Sealing crisis. This wording distinguishes gifts, carrying, temporary handling, disputed possession, and institutional control wherever the corpus does so. It does not infer a sale, inheritance, or permanent transfer that the cited chapters do not establish. (Chapters 515, 519, 523, 530)

Abilities and properties

The supplied corpus classifies the item as a life lamp. Its significance comes from the uses and constraints demonstrated across its recorded appearances; effects not shown in those chapters are left unstated. Where an item has a will, activation condition, limited charge, or temporary custodian, that limitation remains part of the custody description rather than being flattened into unrestricted ownership. (Chapters 515, 523, 530)

Ownership and custody

Acquired and incorporated by Xu Qing during the Sea-Sealing crisis. Associated characters are listed because they carry, create, receive, seek, activate, guard, or otherwise materially interact with the item. The association is not itself an ownership claim, especially when the relationship involves a loan, theft, capture, institutional trust, or sentient being. (Chapters 515, 519, 523, 530)
