Master's Glaive
The Master's Glaive[39,87] is located in the southwest part of Darkshore. To the west of Darkshore stands a mysterious monument, a massive adamantine glaive buried in an unmovable boulder called the Old God Skull. The night elves consider this a sacred area, as they believe the mysterious titans, creators of the world, are the only ones who could have wielded the gigantic glaive.Template:Cite It appears as a snail shell-like skull, with a massive weapon embedded in the crown.Template:Cite It is the site of an enormous skeleton forgotten one.Template:Cite It is believed that a Titan killed one of the Old Gods or one of their minions here.Template:Cite
This unusual monument is surrounded by a small lake. While it was once a night elf holy place, the area is now under the control of the Twilight’s Hammer. They believe the statue is some sort of divine corpse — the remains of an Old God. The term "Master’s Glaive" refers to part of the monument — the sword embedded in the skull.Template:Cite
There are rumors of a complex underground labyrinth underneath the remains.Template:Cite
The shell has holes where presumably eyes should be, and tentacles are draped around the area, giving it an appearance similar to a kraken. The Twilight's Hammer have chosen it as a location for one of their dark altars.

A popular theory is that this is the place where one of the Old Gods fell to the might of the Titans. Onu refers to it being where an "old lord of the earth" fell long ago in the quest The Master's Glaive.
Some speculate that the sword is Taeshalach, half of the great sword of Sargeras called Gorshalach. However, it is said that Aggramar currently wields Taeshalach.Template:Cite
It is confusing why titans would have impaled an old god and left such a powerful a weapon in its dead corpse. Some theorize that the sword in its remains prevents it from regenerating and putting Azeroth in danger once again. The Twilight's Hammer are worshipping the Old God's remains, and perhaps they are trying to reawake it by removing the sword from the creature.
