Description
When they clapped me in irons, the Burning Blade instructor, Luhk the Keen-Eyed, took my blade. He's an honorable orc, even if his training techniques are counter-productive. I want my blade back, {class}. Then, I'll break myself free.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- They Call Him Lantresor of the Blade
The garrison blueprints were taken to the Burning Blade village when the Warsong sacked your caravan. I can't construct this building without those plans. There's been talk of a young blademaster who's been exiled from the clan for many years. They call him Lantresor of the Blade.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Not Without My Honor
The blade is not the only important item a blademaster carries. Once he has passed his final tests in the Masters' Caverns, the blademaster is given the honor of wearing the Burning Blade's banner.
