Background

  • In-game Version
  • Nexon Version

The Knight of Elrios, forging his own path.

No longer obsessed with 'catching up with his sister', Elsword now walks his own path while shouldering everyone's expectations as the Knight of Elrios. Elsword never gave up, even in difficult situations, as he overcame many trials to become stronger. To be closer to his sister, Elsword became a Knight of Velder, eventually working up the ranks to become Lord Knight, the strongest of the knights. But he was discouraged when he met his sister again and realized that Elesis had also become stronger.

His lack of confidence influenced his decision to sacrifice himself in the end. However, when his friends did everything they could to save him, he realized the importance of friendship and decided to believe in himself, just like his friends believe in him. Elsword no longer chases the shadow of his sister but finds his own future to walk towards with everyone he cherishes.

"We will never lose, we'll just get back up every time!"

Elsword will now leave his own mark on history, forging a new path with his hands every step of the way.

One of 'Elriabrunnr' that attracts El energy, this sanctum used to be a training ground for ancient Elrians.
There's something strangely compelling about this site.
To become stronger let's visit the Elrian Sanctum.

Due to Elrianode not being fully restored, the Elrian sanctum also seemed influenced by chaos. There's also voices... However, the voices led straight back to the entrance. Let's ask Denif about this phenomena and about these Trace of Primordial Chaos.

According to Denif, the sanctum reflects one's "determination." Everyone's experience in the sanctum will be slightly different.
But since the sanctum seems to be influenced by Henir, he will make something that will help with exploring the sanctum as long as he has the right ingredients.

Denif was able to make a compass that works even in midst of Henir energy.
But something is missing...
Maybe the voices you heard is the key. It's time to find the answers. Let's start pondering while defeating more Henir Mutated Monsters.

Description

"What are you afraid of?" Elsword knows the answer to that question, but could not answer easily. "You cannot run from your problems forever," the voice scolded. Why did he think the voice was unfamiliar? It was the voice of someone very familiar, someone he was very familiar with, and someone who is very familiar with him.
Elsword's deepest fear is "always staying in Elesis's shadow." Always shadowed by her accomplishments, and disappointing his friends.
Did I start my journey to become stronger than my sister? Did I sacrifice myself to be better than her? Maybe it's why he started the journey, but it's not the reason that drives him now. He finally accepts that. He is ready.
Elsword headed towards the sanctum. "He" was waiting for his answer at the heart of the sanctum.

Trivia

  • When Knight Emperor enters awakening mode, he also naturally resonates with the El, causing the bottom half of his eyes to glow in a bright blue color.
  • Knight Emperor wears a turquoise blue gem embedded in a gold frame similar to those worn by the El Masters, especially the one originally worn by Solace. A similar, larger gem can be seen near the hilt of his sword.
    • The same design feature is found in Elsword's other path that displays the ability of El Resonance, Genesis. Both of his other remaining paths neither display visual signs of the ability nor the blue gems.
  • Knight Emperor's path is the only path to retain their original job name for the entire line. (Sword Knight, Lord Knight, and Knight Emperor) (excluding Eve)
