Arthas's body??

[bill091]

Does anyone of you know in that chaos of the Cataclysm...what finally happened to the body of Arthas???I am really curious about...

[Zanardam]

I am pretty sure the death Knigths of the ebon blades steal it...and from it, they sucked all the remnant of his necro essence and create more Death knigths...........MOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAR!!!


no seriously...i dunno. :P

[Colbor]

I'm guessing mister Tirion brought the corpse back to be burried at Light's Hope.

[Negrido]

Possibly went out Darth Vader style. Bon fire.

I'm much more worried about Frostmourne. Tirion really dropped the ball on that one. I bet Mal'ganis walked off with the thing and he ends up being a major villain/plot point some time in the future. Mark my words.

[Fuger]

I believe there is a big huge thing in SW for him.

back in the alpha at least.

The whole disappeared frostmourne thing is ridiculous! Seriously, it was there, lying on the ground, I bet Tirion even tripped on it on his way our of ICC and yet, it's still missing? Wtf

It gets shattered by the Ashbringer at the end of the fight, releasing the contained souls and dispersing its power. Most of the blade itself is still intact, but a few shards were lying about as well. With the souls gone, the blade's power is broken, so it's nothing more than a sharp-ish-maybe hunk of saronite now.

Frostmourne is shatter...go see the final video of ICC via the dalaran statue...

edit : Thx Emaluri.

According to wowwiki, frostmourne is unbreakable.

I am slightly disappointed you didn't have a picture to go with that .

But i agree, maybe not Mal'ganis but we will see Frostmourne again. I hope to go blizzard doesn't crap out and make it "Firemourne" and give it to lava dude bolvar.

well it got shattered so thats pretty much BS^^ i think despite what arthas had done tirion brought his corpse to light hope and buried it since he kinda reversed into his human self right before dying.

Thx to blizz, they can change the lore all the times. Oh and wowwiki is never a trustable source of info. You can even change the info here and pretend frostmourne is a Deathwing creation until a user change it again....and again...and again,etc.

So what if it was shattered? It can be reforged; made even more powerful than it was. NOW THAT, WOULD PROVE THAT ICC WAS MERELY A SET BACK!

[Flabb]

According to wowwiki, frostmourne is unbreakable.

because Wikipedia is full of 100% solid facts and absolutely no guess work.

[Emaluri]

According to wowwiki, frostmourne is unbreakable.

Actually, it says the exact opposite in the opening paragraph.

Frostmourne was the runeblade that Ner'zhul, the Lich King, thrust from the Frozen Throne, intending that Arthas Menethil — his unwitting potential host — would discover it on the continent of Northrend. It was wielded by Arthas, the new Lich King, until it was destroyed following his defeat in Icecrown Citadel.

So, no, you're wrong.

To be fair, the remnants of the blade are missing.

Sure, but unless you get the Nathrezim (Dreadlords) to do it, binding someone's will to the blade, it would just be another shiny sword. Nothing special.

[Negrido]

Q: What happened to Frostmourne after it was shattered?
A: While this is a closely guarded secret, we'll trust you to be discreet: no one knows where the remnants of Frostmourne are now.

If the remains of the sword are just shattered metal then questioning their current location is unnecessary. The fact that Bornakk took the time to respond to this question suggest that there is something more to the blade that we may see in the future.

Sure. It's entirely possible that it'll be reforged. If they do that, I really hope it turns out well, but this answer smells a lot more like "It's gone, but we don't want to completely close off our options."

As it stands now, though, the blade is a broken shell. If it was anything else, it wouldn't have been the single defining point of the battle where victory became possible, rather than hopeless.

[Tailz]

when i look at the statue in dal i see the broken hilt of the sword just below tirion... whos to say thats not it

[Frozenbeef]

isn't their 2 on the statue...?

[Dianthe]

I was quite sure that Shadowmourne broken in 2 sits on the statue in the middle of Dalaran... :P
