In-game Description
The beloved black axe of the gallant
Shieldless Lothian, formerly of Forossa.
No warrior matched the ferocity of unbeatable
Lothian, but he abruptly retired from the
battlefield and was never heard from again.
Some say that he grew tired of the frailty
of human foes, and set off to slay the
legendary dragon.
Availability
Dark Souls 2 & Scholar of the First Sin:
- Shaded Woods treasure. From the Ruined Fork Road, take the left route and you will find the axe behind a Flexile Sentry (Dark Souls II),
or a Forest Guardian (Dark Souls II: Scholar of the First Sin).
