The Evil Seed (イヴィルスパーム Ivuiru Supāmu?, "Evil Sperm") was an event depicted in Soulcalibur Legends and the Soulcalibur opening sequence, as well as Soulcalibur VI's Soul Chronicle prologue, where a bright beam of light shot into the sky from Soul Edge after it accepted Siegfried as its rightful owner. According to New Legends of Project Soul this was because Soul Edge had become unbalanced and enraged by the death of Cervantes and the destruction of its other half.
