Restore the Sword
Daoist Bidi points you to an abandoned blacksmith shop in Pangzhen to find Bronze Essence for an old friend’s Tianxuan Bronze Sword, left behind by Master Bi Yuan.
The essence glimmers deep in the furnace, its patterns echoing the old sword. Use the Bronze Essence to Soul Temper the blade.
Return to The Order’s Tavern and speak with Daoist Bidi. Seeing his old friend’s blade shine again may bring him some comfort.
