TheWoWDBWhen players interact with him, he says:
For eons uncounted the Maw has stood
as the most impenetrable prison in all
of existence.
Every day I send unworthy souls, dark
things beyond saving, plummeting into
that abyss with the comfort that they
will forever be trapped within.
And yet, here you stand, one who has
crossed the uncrossable barrier. Your
ride on the winds of change during a
very tenuous time.

No poke-lines? Well that's disappointing. :( All the other leaders have poke lines.
That is every comment on this page.

Intermission: March of the Penitent

Wracking Pain
Hand of Destruction
