Adventure Guide Entry
The in-game Adventure Guide text for the Sael'orn encounter in Assault on Violet Hold.
These origins of these arachnid demons are not fully understood - scholars who have studied the Legion speculate that they are the remnants of a forgotten race on a world long ago conquered by the armies of Sargeras. Sael'orn is a particularly vicious specimen, and has been tasked with leading the infiltration of Dalaran.
