Icarium's Hornwood Longbow first appears in Deadhouse Gates as a meticulously maintained weapon of hornwood and stone-tipped arrows, serving as the half-Jaghut wanderer's primary means of defense in the harsh deserts of Seven Cities. Throughout the series, the bow becomes a symbol of Icarium's fractured psyche and his search for identity, its careful upkeep contrasting with the destructive fury he unleashes when his memories are triggered. The weapon's presence across multiple books underscores Icarium's tragic journey, as its reliability and precision stand in stark contrast to the chaos that follows in his wake.
