Editing Bael'Zharon's Defeat (section)

== Summary ==
* Completion of the event varied by server but was completed in December 2000.
* Dev controlled Asheron appeared to rally monarchs against Bael (including two who refused to run the [[The Gauntlet]]).
* Dialog (see below) and battles between Asheron and Bael were fought in [[Cragstone]], where the [[Shadow Spire]] fell, and at [[Plateau Village]].
* Dev controlled [[Elysa Strathelar]] appeared to rally her fellow Isparians. While Asheron kept the Hopeslayer occupied, she hinted at a means to defeat Bael'Zharon.
* Shortly after the appearance of Elysa, the [[Chosen of Asheron]] NPC appeared in Cragstone, Hebian-To and Zaikhal. It handed out {{Itemlink|Asheron's Missive}}, 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 [[A Shadow of Black Ferah|Black Ferah]].
* When the Hopeslayer was defeated, {{Itemlink|Remnants of Ilservian}} appeared, along with 6 remnants of the [[Soul Crystals]] that imprisoned him. There were only 6 per server and could be handed in for unique one-time-only items (see below).
