If you've had swords that long, you're not looking around hard enough. I give you a lot of credit, actually, for simply being alive that long (especially considering you must be pretty new).

I'm not going to spoon feed you here, but I'd ask some friends in game.. look on the ground in some obvious places.. or just go explore.

Some suggestions for easy safe exploration:

Udgaard. Lots of nice stuff there, especially for your level.

Mountains south of Galadon: Head out the south gate, look for a way to start going up.

Seantryn Moden.. the city south of the ocean. From Hamash, leave out the east gate, then go south across the ocean. Can be a little tricky to find on your first trip.

On your way to these three places you should find many more interesting places to find all kinds of things.

...Rome...
