Abel's Lance first appeared as Kain's ultimate weapon in Final Fantasy IV Advance, received in his Lunar Trial when he resists the temptation to kill his friend Cecil. Kain's name is derived from the Biblical Cain, who became the first murderer by killing his brother Abel when God accepted Abel's offering over Kain's. Thus, Abel's Lance derives its name from the same mythos that Kain himself does. It should be noted that Kain's Lance is another Final Fantasy weapon named for Kain in a similar fashion.
