This is gonna be a long read so buckle in...
So, Iverr and Estinien basically shared Nidhogg's power through ARR to the end of the Dragonsong War. However, when Estinien was overtaken by Nidhogg's rage, it severed the connection shared between the wyrm and Iverr...this, in turn, made Iverr unable to use his draconic abilities he gained from said connection.
He spent the short time in post-HW fighting alongside WoL as a normal dragoon. While he was still a great fighter, the loss of that which gave him power was difficult for the Viera....Before the fight with Nidhoggstinien, Hraesvelgr gifts one of his own eyes, albeit temporarily, to WoL. WoL, in turn, asks Iverr to hold it, as it would be of more use to him.
Upon taking the Eye, Iverr once again felt the strength he once had from Nidhogg, but this time......this time it was no longer a shared strength. It was his to use in full.
Upon Nidhogg's defeat, and with Estinien safe, Iverr brought the Eye back to the wyrm Hraesvelgr, returning it as promised. This surprised Hraesvelgr, as all previous dragoons were so quick to take the eyes of dragons with no thought to their owners. This touched Hraesvelgr; it reminded him of Shiva's kindness, and he saw the same kindness and love within Iverr. Hraesvelgr then prompted Iverr to hold on to his eye for the time being, with the promise that he would return it to him when he deemed he no longer needed it.
Iverr did not take this gift for granted. Using Hraesvelgr's golden power, he helped WoL liberate Ala Mhigo and Kugane, striking down Shinryu and smiting Zenos once and for all (or so he thought akjfjskd)
However, when he too was swiftly brought to the First alongside the Scions, he feared he'd lose the connection he had begun to form with Hraesvelgr. His temporary Lightwarden transformation did not help his confidence either, and he took up the art of the Dancer as he recovered throughout Shadowbringers.
Once Emet-Selch was defeated, he took back up the lance, and when calling upon the power of the wyrm in battle, he was surprised to find that he was able to use it, ableit at a fraction of its usual strength. Even across the universe, the connection between himself and Hraesvelgr endured. This helped him regain his confidence, and upon returning to the Source, he spared no time in training himself in wielding this power and strengthening this bond.
By the time the Final Days had begun, Iverr and Hraesvelgr's bond was stronger than ever. When the Scions, him now amongst them, were determined to fly across the universe to find Meteion, he feared that if something were to happen to him and the Eye, he wouldn't be able to fulfill his promise to the wyrm. Thus, he left the Eye behind. He feared that he would be returned to a powerless state but, in the fight with the Endsinger, in his endless resolve to stay by WoL's side, he clung to hope, calling upon Hraesvelgr for power and, to his surprise, Hraesvelgr answered. Iverr was able to wield his power without the Eye's assistance, just as Estinien could wield Nidhogg's.
Upon their return, Iverr took a short respite before taking his pilgrimage back to the Churning Mists. He called Hraesvelgr down, Eye in hand, and returned it to him. This pleased the great dragon, who had fully expected Iverr to never return it.
In this act of trust, Hraesvelgr named Iverr his Golden Lance, one to enact judgement upon those who threatened the peace on this star. โ๏ธ
