Description

It has been brought to my attention that a rather curious contagion is spreading through a small coastal region within Highmountain. The local tribes have abandoned the area for fear of catching this ailment that currently has no known cure. One of our own was traveling through the area when her companion fell ill. She has requested the Conclave's assistance. Seek her out, High Priest, and do whatever you can to stop this sickness from spreading.

    My companion has fallen terribly ill, as you can see. He must have caught whatever these taurens had. Their entire camp has been wiped out! It appears to be fel in origin, and impervious to all known treatments.
