Original artwork description:

This is about Ukrainian treasure: about blacksmith's sword 🗡️ this sword was created in the X-XI century and means a lot for Ukraine because contains the words "Коваль Людота" (Koval Ludota = blacksmith Ludota). Why it's important? The word "Koval" is a Ukrainian word. For many years Ukraine was attacked by Russia: our language was forbidden in the Russian empire, and in the Soviet Union our language was called "language for cows/for villages, etc. And now Russia continues fighting against Ukraine (in real war and also by information attacks).

So a treasure like this helps us to remember we exist for centuries and we will save ourselves.

This is about the sword. But also you can see the stones around it. This is a little reminder about king Arthur's stories (one of my favorite 😊). Little birds can move the sword and stones like little change can move everything in the country. Looking for a change. Hope all news is empty words only.
