Adventure Guide Entry

The in-game Adventure Guide text for the Talon King Ikiss encounter in Sethekk Halls.

Talon King Ikiss was the charismatic spiritual leader of the daring group of arakkoa which left their home in the Terokkar forest in search of a "promised god." He had received dreams of this god as he slept, and knew that revelation lay within the crumbling halls of Auchindoun. Ikiss was driven insane by the visions, and now declares himself to be Terokk reborn, a divine hero from arakkoa myth.
