The power of hope and virtue that paladins and priests channel.
Humans revere the Light through the Church of the Holy Light, whose clerics heal the wounded and whose cathedrals rise in Stormwind and once rose in Lordaeron. Dwarves embraced it too. During the Second War, Archbishop Alonsus Faol joined faith and steel by founding the paladins of the Silver Hand, and the Light remains the bane of the undead.
