Bronze Swords[change | change source]

The first bronze swords with a length equal to or greater than 60 cm date from the 17th century BC in regions of the Black Sea and the Aegean Sea. They emerged as an evolution of shorter weapons of the type of the daggers. To make a sword useful in combat, one must have a correct alloy, give it the right shape and apply the necessary thermal (and finishing) treatments. The longer is a sword, the stresses (bending and buckling) are more important. What is needed is a weapon that is hard enough (to cut), fairly flexible (without being fragile) and tenacious enough to withstand the blows in the fights.

The manufacturing process is summarized as follows: The bronze swords were cast into moulds, heated to a certain temperature and allowed to cool slowly. Finally they cold hammered (hitting them with a hammer on a type anvil) to increase its hardness.

Alexander The Great Coffin

The Sword of Sargeras^[1] (or the dark blade of Sargeras)^[2] is a weapon 'crafted from hatred made manifest'^[3] that the titanSargeras used to impale Azeroth, gravely injuring its world-soul. It struck in Silithus, decimating the life and settlements in the region, which is now referred to as the Wound. This event damaged the titan spirit at the core of the planet, causing it to start bleeding Azerite all over the world. The Explorers' League didn't know how deep the sword goes and what Sargeras might have disturbed or awoken.^[4]

The sword's magic emitted a dark-red aura, its energies seeping into Azeroth's heart like poison, until orderchampions drained the sword of its corruption with their artifact weapons serving as vessels for its vast power. The red glow subsided, and the sword went dormant.^[5]

According to Pixni Rustbomb, the research about the silithid who survived the destruction of the land helped understand the power of Sargeras' sword.^[6]

• Magni Bronzebeard observing the corruption.

• The champions drew the corruption away.

• .rendering the sword inert.

Notes

• During the War of the Ancients, Sargeras impaled Broxigar with his jagged, broken blade.^[7]
• Unlike its pre-7.3 depictions (see gallery), the jagged sword of Sargeras is whole instead of being broken in half, and the hilt of the sword hosts an orb of energy instead of an eye.
• The sword is never given a name in canon, only referred repeatedly as the 'sword of Sargeras'.
  • In the non-canonical Warcraft RPG, Sargeras wielded two swords—Gorshalach, and later another one named Gorribal. In the RPG canon, Gorribal and Taeshalach were forged from the sundered remnants of Gorshalach.
  • Though the blade Taeshalach and the name Gorshalach were made canon, it has never been clarified if the sword that was plunged into Azeroth was meant to be Gorshalach.
  • In the RPG, an image depicted Sargeras' sword plunged into a planet.^[8]
