Light's Hammer

Light's Hammer is the entrance hall of Icecrown Citadel, held by the Ashen Verdict. Highlords Tirion Fordring of the Argent Crusade and Darion Mograine of the Ebon Blade, attired in their class' Tier 10 armor, can be found in here, as well as quartermasters and other vendors for the Ashen Verdict. All of the Tier 10 vendors are also located here.

Players enter from the north and head south toward and. make incursions from the south and are dealt with by guard NPCs.

During the Fourth War, Princess Talanji, Baine Bloodhoof, and a Horde champion used Bwondsamdi's Death Gate to Icecrown and teleported to the chamber, with the Spirit of Vol'jin also accompanying them. The area was deserted, save from geists looting stuff belonging to the Ashen Verdict and abominations guarding the entrance.

• Icecrown Citadel instance

• Dispelling Strength of Wrynn
• The continued sacrifice of the Ashen Verdict and heroes such as yourself bring us all closer to final victory. Now I have come to Icecrown Citadel to lend aid to those who fight against the Scourge. Together we will end the tyranny of the Lich King!

• You can do this alone, you say? Is this simple foolishness or misplaced confidence before me?

• No, I can see it in your eyes. You have to know. You have to prove to yourself that you can do this alone. Very well. I will retreat from the battlefield if you so wish it.

• You will need more than bravery to defeat the Lich King. Good luck.

After: Your choice has been made. Whether you live or die by that choice is now up to you.

Speaking to Tirion:

• This is our final stand. What happens here will echo through the ages. Regardless of outcome, they will know that we fought with honor. That we fought for the freedom and safety of our people.

• Remember, hero, fear is your greatest enemy in these befouled halls. Steel your heart and your soul will shine brighter than a thousand suns. The enemy will falter at the sight of you. They will fall as the light of righteousness envelops them!

After the Lich King is dead, players can return here through the raid entrance. The freed spirit of Uther the Lightbringer is now present by the teleporter. Both Jaina Proudmoore and Sylvanas Windrunner are also here, but in different positons and based on your faction, only one can be spoken to.

Tirion:

• A day of celebration and of mourning, hero...

Jaina Proudmoore:

• He's truly gone, isn't he?
• I... I can feel it.
• Was there truly no way to save him?
• I fear I shall always wonder.
