Nice find and interesting story. Is that Norse legend or something else.

I know most of the weapon names are based on some sort of myth but it was just funny to see another SE game referencem, since Front Mission Online is getting ready in Japan.

Actually, as RamzaBeovulve has said towards the top of this page, Durandal is mentioned in a "chanson de geste" (the French equivalent of epic poetry). Specifically this tale is known as "La Chanson de Roland" and, like the vast majority of other similar works, has a historical base but is meant primarily to entertain. For example, true historical characters (such as Charlemagne, known and revered by all) are employed, but the stories were set during a time when this king would have been at least 200 years old.
