Summary
Broxigar’s last charge is remembered through the axe that survived him. Cast back to the War of the Ancients, the orc entered a portal into the Burning Legion alone and fought until he was struck down. The weapon left in the earth was recovered, carried back in his honor, and eventually placed in the hands of his niece.
Chapter I
THROUGH THE LEGION’S PORTAL
The warrior dies in the opening line; the axe does not.
Broxigar is described as an orc of the Horde thrown back to the War of the Ancients with little beyond his strength and a single weapon. When a portal opened into the Burning Legion, he crossed it alone. He cut a path forward until he was finally struck down.
Chapter II
WHAT THE AXE CARRIED
The axe remained in the earth after Broxigar fell. Someone recovered it and carried it away to honor the orc who had made the charge. It was later given to his niece, keeping the weapon within his family. The account closes where it began, with the contrast between the warrior who was gone and the axe that endured.
