Solar Spire

The Solar Spire is the spear formerly wielded by Raitaus Solflame.

Background
Forged over a thousand years ago, it was initially only a spear with intricate design meant to serve as a gift for the esteemed dragoon to honor his service to Quel'thalas. However, after the fall of Quel'thalas, Raitaus swore vengenace upon all undead. He had the weapon blessed and enchanted by the priests that remained, turning it into a holy weapon. With the establishment of the Blood Knights, Raitaus joined their ranks and became a paladin, wielding the Solar Spire as his weapon.

Over the years the weapon has changed, becoming a part of Raitaus and a part of his house. When the House was attacked by the Onyx Rose Order, Raitaus Solflame was killed in battle. The Spire was left in the ruins of the Enclave, retaining all of its holy power. Valythra Solflame attempted to claim the spear for herself, only to find that its mere presence was excrutiating. The spear remains on the floor of Raitaus' meditation chambers.

Design
The spear is clearly of Thalassian make, with the unique red and gold coloration that the elves of Quel'thalas have become known for. The head of the spear is not overly ornamental, in order to serve its purpose in combat, yet at the same time there are ornate designs, etching of gold into the red blade. A golden, circular gem rests above the area where the blade meets the handle, representing the sun. Ever since the weapon was enchanted, the "sun" glows brightly with Light magic.

Properties
As a weapon imbued with Light magic, the Solar Spire is a dangerous tool against demons and undead. Rather than drawing its power from Raitaus, it carries its own magical potency, retaining all of its Light energy even when left without use. It was proven to be a useful tool for Raitaus to focus his own magical strength.
