At the same time, in Ironforge, at the Great Forge.
Magni Bronzebeard, King of Ironforge and the greatest Grandmaster of centuries, has devoted a week to one thing: forging Ashbringer, completely neglecting state affairs!
The crystal ball brought by Fenna was filled with unimaginable Holy Light energy; it was the best material he had ever seen. As king, he took out the top-grade material that had been treasured in the kingdom's treasury for hundreds of years, and then, according to his understanding, finally forged it into this two-handed sword.
This is a silver-white knight's greatsword, much longer, wider, and heavier than an ordinary knight's sword.
In fact, judging from its appearance, it should not be called a "sword" but a "knife," and it is a heavy knife similar to a large cleaver, with a single edge and great power.
This is a cleaver, its thick back as straight as a line, its sharp blade as straight as a line, and its slanted tip as straight as a line, just like the code of Paladin: upright and straight!
In the very center of the blade's back, in an arc-shaped indentation, is embedded a crystal filled with Holy Light energy. After being treated with a special technique, a hand shape appears on it, representing the Order of the Silver Hand.
This is a divine sword created specifically for Retribution Paladins. It was born when the Scourge Plague swept through northern Lordaeron. Its primary purpose was to combat and purify the Undead Scourge Undead Scourge!
"I could never forge a better greatsword. This sword embodies my spirit and emotions, my grief for my brother, and my hatred for the Undead Scourge. It is filled with fury and power, and I only hope it hasn't come too late." King Magni handed Ashbringer to Fenna: "Try it, child!"
Fenna stood still, without taking the bait.
From the moment the crystal was delivered here, she has stayed here without ever leaving. Even when practicing martial arts, she is here. King Magni even found a Dwarves combat master for her.
Like Arthas before her, Fenna also followed a Dwarves master to learn Dwarves combat techniques, which greatly helped improve her strength.
She is completely different now; even her spirit is different!
She watched as King Magni hammered away, witnessing the birth of Ashbringer from start to finish, and even offered her opinion on Ashbringer's appearance.
It can be said that this sword embodies not only King Magni's spirit and emotions, but also hers. When the Holy Light crystal ball was inlaid, she also contributed her own power, using her own Holy Light energy to fuse the crystal ball and the sword into one.
In other words, she and King Magni actually created this sword together!
She recalled Jiang Jie's words, "Remember, after the Ashbringer is born, you must feel its power, make it acknowledge you, and ideally, merge a part of your spirit into it, becoming one with it. I think at that moment, you will become a Grand Knight!"
It's no longer needed!
Because during the forging process, she had already gained the Ashbringer's approval and incorporated her own spirit and emotions.
only...
"Does this sword belong to Highlord Mograine, or to me?" Fenna hesitated.
Ultimately, the crystal was brought to us by Highlord Mograine, so the sword should rightfully belong to him.
"Child, I know your concerns. But I must tell you, this sword already belongs to you, for it has recognized you, and only you can unleash its full power. Unless you die, no one can truly wield it. Divine weapons possess a spirit; its soul was created by you and me together, but I am not Paladin, you are, therefore it will only recognize you."
King Magni looked exhausted.
There was also an irrepressible excitement: "Take it, let me see its power! It's been forged, the finest weapon, the pride of my life! Don't let me down, child!" "Well... alright." Fenna couldn't refuse any longer; in fact, she had already felt the call of the Ashbringer, so she reached out and grasped the hilt.
In an instant, a brilliant light shone forth!
The entire Ironforge was filled with an unimaginably dense Holy Light, and hundreds of thousands of residents witnessed the birth of Ashbringer. The power of the Holy Light inspired and deeply moved people, leading to the emergence of more Dwarves Paladin in Ironforge in the future.
The next moment, Fenna felt herself become one with Ashbringer, her spirit merged with Ashbringer's, and more Holy Light energy surged into her body, transforming her body, purifying her soul, and elevating her spirit.
She is the Ashbringer, the Ashbringer is her.
A sufficiently powerful Paladin weapon can help its master advance in rank.
Like Arthas, his Paladin status was questioned from the beginning. Gavinrad Doom even disagreed with making him a Paladin. He was not as steadfast in his faith in the Holy Light as Fenna. He had not been Paladin for very long, but it was because he had the personal guidance of Uther the Lightbringer and the purple epic Paladin warhammer " Might of Menethil " that he became a Grand Knight so quickly, the youngest Grand Knight.
The Might of Menethil, commissioned by Uther the Lightbringer and forged by the Dwarves Craftsmen's Guild using the finest materials and blessed with his own Holy Light, is named after the House Menethil. It is already the best weapon below the legendary orange rank, even better than Uther's own weapon, and better than any of the Grand Knight ' weapons!
Fenna's faith in the Holy Light was extremely firm.
She was originally a High-Ranking Paladin, wielding the " Truesilver Holy Sword," the standard weapon of High-Ranking Paladin of the Order of the Silver Hand, which was far inferior to the " Might of Menethil." Nevertheless, she had become a High-Ranking Paladin and had already touched the threshold of Grand Knight.
If she possessed the " Might of Menethil," she would have become a Grand Knight long ago!
This is sufficient proof of the Holy Light's favor and blessing upon her.
Now, she possesses the " Ashbringer," far superior to the " Might of Menethil."
In an instant, just a moment, the Ashbringer opened another door for her, granting her even greater power and allowing her to see a wider world!
"I am now Grand Knight!" The Holy Light receded, Fenna sighed softly.
She is 25 years old this year. Apart from Arthas and Turalyon, one of the Grand Knight, the Order of the Silver Hand have no younger Grand Knight than her.
Moreover, she possessed her first legendary Paladin weapon.
Now, perhaps in terms of strength alone, apart from Uther the Lightbringer, she is no less than any of the Grand Knight, and even compared to renowned Grand Knight like Dathrohan, Gavinrad, Tirion, Alexandros, she is in no way inferior!
"Child, go to the Mage Quarter. I've already had the mages prepare to open a portal to Lordaeron for you," Magni said. "I need to rest for a few days; I'm exhausted!"
