Adventure Guide Entry
The in-game Adventure Guide text for the Ash'golm encounter in Vault of the Wardens.
Ash'golm was one of Ragnaros' lieutenants who burned a violent scar across the forests of Kalimdor before the Wardens finally managed to bind him. Unable to fully destroy Ash'golm, the Wardens locked him in a prison of ice. Unfortunately, the recent incursion by the Legion has weakened the containment that kept Ash'golm frozen all these years....
