ITEMS · THE VALE
Trollhammaren
A vast war-maul a troll warlord of the high passes is said to have forged for its own fist out of a fallen waystone and the haft of a tree — too heavy for any two men to swing, and the single hardest-hitting weapon the Vale has ever weighed. The cold keeps it; the Brood keeps the cold.
Before the Troll-King that dens at the Frostmaw now, there was an older one — a warlord of the dire trolls vast enough to have broken a hold-gate with its hands and cunning enough to want a tool that broke them faster. The Brood does not smith, but that one did, once: it tore a standing waystone from the pass, set it on a whole young pine for a haft, and froze the join with the deep cold of its own breath until stone and wood were one thing that would not come apart. That is Trollhammaren. There is no enchantment on it and no song in it — it is simply the most weight ever asked to move on the end of a swing, and what it strikes does not stand up. It needs a back like a troll's to lift, and it rewards that back with the plain, total authority of a falling mountain. The holds tell their children the warlord froze the cold into the head so the hammer would always remember the pass it came from. The trolls do not tell their children anything; they just keep the cold, and the cold keeps the hammer.
