Aha, here it is!

It seems that while you were gone, Tillen contacted his higher-ups in Sanctum. A lot of discussion followed before he got orders from some of the top generals.

Player: "And...?"

And they want to restore Tiamat's Power. They feel that if we're able to study or wield it, we could gain a huge advantage.

I'm not entirely sure it's wise, but orders are orders. And I must admit the idea is quite tempting....

What do you think, Player? You've come this far. Are you willing to see this through to the end?

Player: Accept.

Then I'll inform Sanctum that you've taken on the task.

Here are the Blade Fragments back. Take them to Tillen. He'll tell you what you need to do with them.

Player: "Let's hope this is the right thing...."

Welcome back. You've caused yet another stir in Sanctum with your discoveries. You seem to be doing that a lot.

I have to admit, I'm curious.... Do you mind if I take a look at these Blade Fragments of yours?

Player: "Not at all."

Oh. My. The feelings this power stirs within me... Yes, this was definitely forged by a Dragon Lord.

Whew. You learn about these kinds of things in the classroom, but to actually experience it in person...

Ahem. At any rate, I need you to see Ukon, the smith. He already has the hilt and can tell you what needs to be done.

Player: "Let's hope this gets easier."

Arieluma. Tillen has already briefed me on what needs to be done. Frankly, it's not going to get any easier.

Though I must admit, I'm quite excited. To work on something forged by a Dragon Lord....

I was told you'd have some pieces of blade for me?

Player: "Yes, right here."

Incredible! I hate the Balaur and everything they stand for, but they do make a fine weapon.

And this power...is this the power of a Dragon Lord? If you're not at least a little frightened by it, you're a fool.

Off to work, then. This won't take but a moment.

Player: "I'll wait right here."

And...there! Look at that! Not a blemish to show that it was ever broken! Anyone could reforge it, but only a master like me could do it so well.

Unfortunately, the shattering caused a power drain. Sanctum suggested you take the sword to Lower Udas Temple and defeat Debilkarim the Maker to solve that problem.

The surge of energy produced by Debilkarim's defeat is apparently enough to "light the spark" within Tiamat's Power. Good luck!

Player: "Thanks. I'll not need it, though."

Amazing. To even hold such a thing.... And best of all, Tiamat can't use it to spy on us, as Surama took care of that already!

Veille needs to see this. She'll know what the Seraphim Lords wish to be done with it now.

Ah, your reward. None of these weapons quite match up to Tiamat's Power, but they are mighty nonetheless. Take one with great thanks.
