Eye of Sargeras — Weapon of the Dark Titan
Vanilla WoW Classic 1.12 · x5 realm · wowx5.ruThe Eye of Sargeras is one of the mightiest artifacts of Warcraft, a weapon of the Dark Titan himself. Within it is bound a fragment of the power of Sargeras, enough to shake the very foundations of the world.
Legacy of a fallen titan
Sargeras is the fallen titan, creator of the Burning Legion and eternal foe of all living things. The Eye is a shard of his monstrous might, left in the world after his invasions. The artifact was kept within the sunken Tomb of Sargeras, guarded by the naga deep beneath the waters of the Maelstrom.
The command of Kil'jaeden
The demon Kil'jaeden ordered Illidan to destroy the Lich King in exchange for forgiveness. To do so, Illidan sought out the Eye of Sargeras — the only weapon whose power was great enough to shatter the Frozen Throne itself in distant Northrend.
The failed spell
Illidan carried the Eye to the peak of Mount Hyjal and began a monstrous ritual. The earth trembled, and the artifact's magic reached across half the world toward the Frozen Throne. But his brother Malfurion and the Warden Maiev broke the spell — the Frozen Throne endured, and the design of Kil'jaeden failed.
Bond with other relics
It was the power of the Skull of Gul'dan, absorbed by Illidan, that let him sense the Eye and claim it. So two of the greatest demonic artifacts were entwined in the fate of a single outcast, binding him forever to the Burning Legion.
Place in Vanilla lore
In the age of WoW Classic the Eye of Sargeras is part of the backstory that reveals the might of the Legion and the motives of its eternal leader Kil'jaeden. Understanding the Eye's history lets a player better see the scale of the threat looming over Azeroth.
