Too little information. "Original" Godslayer? My impression has always been that the existence of Godslayer anciently was just one of those tricks that time plays, like Devera's antics. I think there was a quote from Vlad at one point about Godslayer being destroyed by the gods--but Vlad isn't all that reliable a narrator. And the Serioli in Dragon uses a funny tense to describe the relationship between Spellbreaker and Godslayer. There "was/is/will be" an artifact named Remover-of-Aspects-of-Deity.
