Surely a sword which embodied the entire essence of a God would have at least 10m6 power (10m12 if it was a Greater God), and universal scope (so it would be sensing every weakness of everybody in Glorantha all the time, and the wielder would be overwhelmed by the sensory input).
Since this presumably isn't the case, then the sword in question must only hold a fraction of the God's power - making it perfectly possible for there to be several such swords in existence simultaneously.
Alternatively, if the sword does gain its 1m3 power from the daemon inhabiting it, then clearly it must be *a* raven daemon (and a weak example of the species at that), not *the* Raven.
