But that begs the question why is Hawkwing's sword found in a scabbard with the red and gold dragon?
Nobody called the creature on Rand's arms, or on the Dragon Banner, a dragon. IIRC, Rand was wondering if the creature was a dragon or not after seeing the banner a few times, and the same went for his arms. It's essentially a snake with legs and hair that people call a dragon for its association with Rand. Before Rand, the only ones who knew about it were the Aiel, and the only real defeats Hawkwing ever had were against the Aiel, so I doubt he knew about how they marked their clan chiefs.

It was probably from his time in Rhuidean in the glass pillars *NM*

That was my first thought too, though I can't think where the Aiel would encounter it *NM*

I assumed he remembered it because it was Lews Therin's *NM*

But he specifically says that it is from his memories and not Lews Therin's *NM*

Was it just the scabbard or a new sword too? *NM*

Good question, I'm not sure, tho if I had to guess I'd say just the scabbard *NM*

So think the scabbard is an angreal/ter'angreal? *NM*

I'd bet it's answered in the prologue.

My thoughts exactly. The sword is the only part that makes sense as coming from the Prologue. *NM*

Hmmm... not Rhuidean - I'm betting the farm on it being Guaire Amalasan's scabbard

I like that a lot. Seems the most likely out of all of these, too.

I thought the great sword means it is a very long two-handed sword.
