So I don't get why people say that Anduin Lothar only had one sword he wielded (canonically) and that being the great royal sword of stormwind yet there is another weapon in WoW called Askhandi, Greatsword of the Brotherhood which has his initials on the hilt. Is this some sick joke or what, someone trying to mock him? Or was this also his sword? Is there any way to confirm whether or not Askhandi was one of his swords? How did it end up in Nefarian's lair if it was his sword? Ashkandi can't be the great royal sword of stormwind because that is in the possession of Turalyon. So this has to be another sword that he possessed with him which was probably looted from his body after he died and then maybe his sword was taken into blackrock mountain where it was altered heavily while keeping the hilt still intact? He was a dual wielder warrior too, so in my opinion, I think he had 2 swords not 1. So what do you all think, it's another sword that he possessed right? And was stolen from his body after death and taken into blackrock mountain by the orcs? Where it underwent a complete facelift? But the orcs decided to keep the hilt intact, so what we have today is the intact hilt with his initials on it. Lothar was part of the Brotherhood of the Horse during his young days, so maybe that is the exact same sword called Ashkandi. This has been bothering me for 15 years because Blizzard lore writers never confirmed whether Ashkandi was one of his swords or not.
