The
Ashen Verdict was forged out of an alliance between the formidable
Argent Crusade, led by Highlord Tirion Fordring, and the Knights of the
Ebon Blade, led by Highlord Darion Mograine. Reminiscent of the
Shattered Sun Offensive these two different organizations have come
together for a common purpose, to lead the final assault against the
Scourge in Icecrown Citadel and bring about the fall of the Lich King.



The best description of the Ashen Verdict was probably given by
Highlord Darion Mograine himself:


style="font-style: italic;">“The
Ashen Verdict is a select group of the most talented craftsmen in the
Ebon Blade and Argent Crusade. Its creation symbolizes the unity of our
forces as we mount the final assault on the Lich King and his minions.
style="font-style: italic;">
It
is through the Ashen Verdict's efforts that we have discovered how to
bend saronite to our will.”

style="float: right; width: 200px; height: 293px;">With
limited quests available from this
faction, your main source of
reputation gain is going to be inside the Citadel itself. Once inside
you
will be granted reputation each time you manage to bring down a
monster. The reputation you receive will depend on what type of mob you
kill. Most normal mobs will grant you 15 reputation, however harder
elites, and named mobs will grant you more. Bosses inside Icecrown
Citadel will grant you 250 reputation.



There are however a few quests that you can and should do as soon as
Icecrown is fully opened. The Ashen Verdict, having learned to bend
Primordial Saronite to their will, have set their smiths on an epic
task;  to repurpose Arthas’s former weapon
style="font-weight: bold;">Light’s Vengeance
(discarded once he claimed
Frostmourne) to
forge a new weapon called style="color: rgb(255, 102, 0); font-weight: bold;">Shadowmourne.


You will
assist the Verdict’s smiths in forging
Shadowmourne  in what could be considered one of the most epic
quest lines ever seen in game:

Verdict Rewards



Like
Karazhan
and Mount Hyjal before it, players will be rewarded
for their service here with upgradeable rings.
As you gain in reputation your ring will gain in power. All players
will begin at neutral with the Ashen Verdict, and to gain the first
ring you must reach friendly. Once you have reached friendly Ormus the
Penitent (the Death Knight Tier 10 vendor inside Icecrown Citadel) will
offer you the quest style="font-style: italic;">Choose your Path.
It is with this quest you can
pick the ring of your choice. To upgrade your ring simply visit Ormus
again. If you feel you have made a mistake in your ring choice, you can
trade it in for a new one for a small fee.
