What it is
Eternals ends with Dane opening a box his uncle left him, a sword that speaks, and a voice off-screen asking if he is ready. The blade is the Black Knight's; the voice is Blade's; the film that follows from either has not arrived.

From the comics
The Black Knight's sword drinks blood
Forged by Merlin from a meteorite, the Ebony Blade can cut anything and feeds a bloodlust into whoever wields it; every Whitman who has carried it has gone a little mad. The MCU's Dane Whitman has opened the box, and that is all.
