The Twilight Sword,[4] also known as the Sword of Doom,[1] was reforged by the Fire Giant Surtur using the "Burning Galaxy" (created by exploding the home galaxy of the Korbinites),[5][6] with the life force of the planets in it powering the sword,[7] to set the universe afire.[citation needed]

History
It was used as a power source by Loki[8] and Morgan Le Fay.[9]
Apparently the broken Twilight was retrieved and stored in the armory of Asgard.[10]
Beta Ray Bill claims Twilight
After his last defeat at the hands of the Asgardians, a repaired Twilight Sword appeared at the deepest level of Muspelheim,[7] alongside a resurrected Surtur, unable to escape that part of the realm. Twilight deemed Surtur unworthy of it, and left him waiting for a warrior to prove his worthiness to the sword.[11] Beta Ray Bill reached the level of the sword to claim it, but was stopped by Surtur.[12] After a fight between Surtur and Bill, the Korbinite claimed Twilight and used it to slay Surtur and return to his mortal form. Twilight was later placed in a containment unit on Skuttlebutt.[11]
