Bael'Zharon's Defeat

See Bael'Zharon's Rampage for video and screenshots of the Hopeslayer's earlier attacks.

  • Later on during The Child of Daralet event, Lord Asheron appeared and summoned two monarchs who previously refused the offer of becoming Dark Masters. Asheron requested the monarchs to help rally fellow players against the Hopeslayer.
  • Following Asheron's meeting with the monarchs, Bael'Zharon appeared in Mayoi with one of his generals Ler Rhan. He then showed up again later on in Cragstone at the Fallen Shadow Spire to challenge the one who had destroyed it.
  • Asheron then reappeared. After a long dialogue with Bael'Zharon, a battle erupted between the two in Cragstone and continued on in the more remote Plateau Village.
  • As the battle continued on, the famous archer Elysa Strathelar appeared to rally her fellow Isparians. While Asheron kept the Hopeslayer occupied, she hinted at a means to defeat Bael'Zharon through seeking the "Skull, the Heart, and the Singularity".
  • Shortly after the appearance of Elysa, another servant of Asheron appeared -- his Chosen. This creature appeared at various locations throughout Dereth with a Missive written by Asheron, explaining how to obtain and assemble a magical artifact that would weaken the Hopeslayer and give access to his lair.
  • After players gathered the artifacts from each of the new dungeons, they were combined and handed to the Chosen. A portal gem was handed back giving access to the Hopeslayer's dungeon.
  • A battle was fought in the lower chamber of the lair between players and Bael'Zharon and his general Black Ferah.
  • When the Hopeslayer was defeated, the mortal remains of his former self--Ilservian Palacost--appeared, along with 6 remnants of the crystals that imprisoned him. There were only 6 per server and could be handed in for unique one time only items (see below).
  • During the next event, Now In This Hush, the Blood of the Hopeslayer started to appear on the remains of Ilservian that were left behind when he was defeated. The blood can be used on the Sword of Lost Light to create the Sword of Lost Hope. See the quest page for more details.

Lore & Dialog

Chosen of Asheron

Chosen of Asheron tells you, "Greetings, Isparian. My lord Asheron requests the cooperation of your people. Take this."
Chosen of Asheron gives you Asheron's Missive.
Chosen of Asheron tells you, "Assemble the artifacts and bring them to me, so that with my lord's help you may challenge and strike down the Hopeslayer."

Message when Bael'Zharon was Defeated

An adventurer has struck Bael'Zharon a mortal blow! The Hopeslayer, already weakened by the magic of Asheron, is driven from this plane of existence. As he retreats, his voice rends the air across Dereth, "Puppets of the Yalain! You have defeated me here, with the collusion of a great collection of rabble. But you will never rid the world of my power, and my minions will carry on the war without me! As for you, Dule! Base traitor! I sense your art in this artifact assembled by the last Yalain. Thee and thine are banished from Our sight for all time, and ye shall be hunted until the stars fall from their course! Marked are thee!" The Hopeslayer descends, shrieking, into Darkness.
