In 8:84 Blessed, Lord Aurelien of Montsimmard commissioned a sword for his youngest son Luis. Lord Aurelien sought out the most renowned master smith in the Orlesian Empire, Vercenne of Halamshiral. The old master labored for several months, folding steel, honing the edge to perfection. The resulting blade was as long as a man is tall, and sharp as the tongue of any noblewoman. Vercenne proclaimed it, in a fit of irony, the "Summer Sword", since he had crafted it in the winter of his lifetime.

The Summer Sword is a very large and powerful two-handed greatsword in Dragon Age: Origins. It was won by Loghain Mac Tir from its previous Orlesian owner—Luis, son of Lord Aurelien of Montsimmard. Ser Cauthrien, the commander of Loghain's elite soldiers, wields the sword when confronted by the Warden.
Trivia

Added by Zoev- It is possible to obtain two copies of this sword. If you kill Ser Cauthrien and loot her during the Rescue the Queen quest, and then allow the remainder of her guards to kill your party and capture the main player and Alistair, she will respawn and confront you at the Landsmeet. Both times she will have the sword on her body.
- This sword is also carried on the back of Archon Hessarian during The Urn of Sacred Ashes quest.
