The Challenge of the Masters |
The time has come to challenge the Burning Blade masters.
Go to the back of the cavern. There you will find the challenge ring and the masters watching over it from above. Pull the blade from the middle of the ring to issue your challenge. My clan values honor above all else and will respect your claim to trial by combat. As reward, you will be allowed to walk away with your life. Or, you will be dead. Quest Objectives Survive the Burning Blade's trial by combat. I'll see you at the ring. Fight with honor, <name>. |
Make your way to the back of the cavern. There you will see a large open ring, with the leaders of the clan up above.
A Hallvalor Blademaster will announce your approach. "An outsider approaches!" Warlord Dharl of the Thrice Bloodied, the leader of the Burning Blade will acknowledge your right to challenge. "Enter the ring and make your challenge. "Come, <class>. Issue your challenge. We will allow you to fight...and die." |
Click on the sword in the center of the ring to issue your challenge and begin fighting.
|
Once you've pulled the blade, Dharl will order the Warsong guest, Dran'ruk to fight you in the ring.
"A challenge has been issued from this <gender>...this outsider. "Dran'ruk, as our guest, I give you the honor of the first battle." |
Defeat him, and Dharl will then order his grandsons (2 of them) to fight you.
"He was only Warsong and did not fight very well in any case. "Now you will face a true challenge -- my grandsons. "You killed their father outside. It's only fitting they return the favor." |
Killing these two will make Dharl very angry, and he'll come to the ring to face you himself.
"My boys. You've destroyed my legacy! "I'll kill you myself. Honor be damned!" |
This is what Lantresor was waiting for. He will enter the arena with you at this point, and defeat Dharl with your help.
Lantressor: "Dharl, you have no honor. You will die." Dharl: "Half-breed." |
Once Dharl is dead, another orc, female, will jump into the center of the ring. She is Dharl's daughter and assumes command of the Burning Blade.
"Hear me, Burning Blade! By right of ascension, I Azuka Bladefury daughter of Dharl, assume the mantle of warlord." |
"Any clan member who wishes to challenge me may do so."
|
Azuka then tells you that you may leave unharmed, just as Lantresor said they would.
You, <class>, may leave unharmed. However, if I see you again, you will die. |
She will then address Lantresor...
"As for you, Lantresor of the Blade, you had no right joining this one's challenge." |
She will continue his exile, telling him that he will never be allowed to rejoin the Burning Blade.
"You remain a half-breed and an exile. You are not worthy of the Burning Blade. Leave and never return." |
Lantresor is angry by this answer, but must abide by it. At this point, the quest will be complete, and you can return to Rangari D'kaan at Telaari Station.
<Lantresor spits and throws his banner on the ground.> "You are wrong. It is the Burning Blade that is not worthy of me." |
