The Debt

Speak with Lumina Windsinger in the Sepulcher.

I think you should know that it wasn't actually the Gnolls who attacked us on the road.

We were actually attacked by a giant, wolf-like creature that I now know as a "worgen". It dispatched our guards and came for me, but Banon threw himself in its path. I managed to get a spell off which startled the creature, causing it to flee, but Banon was already badly bitten. He insisted I leave him there but I refused.

We were limping back here when the gnolls found us. What came next was terrifying...

I've never seen anything like what happened to Banon. Azeroth is a wonderful place, but the sheer breadth of what is possible here is truly terrifying.

So now you understand. At the very end of his strength after being pierced by a dozen gnoll blades, he reared up to strike me. In that final moment we locked eyes, and I could tell he still knew who he was and that he recognized me. He knew what was happening but he had no control over himself. That was the worst part.

If such a thing is possible, I will see the creature that doomed him dead so that it can never visit this horror on another living thing. I swear it upon the sky above.
