Description

I'm all set here, I'm just gonna play around with the mech, I think I got a good idea how it works thanks to ya. Nathanos "prince of all that's death and destruction" Blightcaller is gonna want you back on that boat, the Banshee's Scream or whatever it is. He'll be happy to know we took care of business. Then again, I got no idea if he even feels happy anymore.
