8. The Finale of the Machine "Eternal Ones" Rebellion: Toward the One
Diakum finally obtained that "glass sword," along with a full set of "glass war armor."
The weapon blank and armor blank had both been "generously provided" by the Jailer. He also commanded a group of evil master smiths from across the cosmos. Their craftsmanship was certainly inferior to the Primus's—they could not forge things like Frostmourne or the Helm of Domination—but making well-crafted blanks was no challenge for them.
Why else would weapons and armor enhanced by anima be called true creation artifacts?
They did not even have physical forms.
Diakum stood before the armor chest, seriously suspecting that he had been swindled. He stared at the "completely empty" chest and sank into prolonged contemplation.
Could this be some damned version of "The Emperor's New Clothes"?
Honestly, if a little boy suddenly appeared beside him, pointed at the chest, and declared how beautiful the armor and weapon were while Diakum still could not see them, Vigilant would truly lose his temper and start cutting people down.
Being looked down upon by Azshara and Medivh was one thing—they truly had the ability to back it up. But even a Primus dared mock him like this?
However, the Runecarver clearly had not put that much thought into it.
