I wish this dude didn't die i kinda liked his character.
This quest really did surprise me. I figured he would be some reoccurring character.
So Blizzard make an interesting character, with a cool lore, explaning how teleportation works.
Explaining how us players, despite being an archmage, we can't conjure portal anywhere that we can "remember" but we have to "learn" it from a trainer, by basically copying their formula. Because manually making your own portal is a different skillset altogether. But the fact we can very easily (with the power of capitalism, that is gold) learn someone else portal foruma is impressive in itself.
It's also rather funny, you guys know how after every mplus run a mage sometimes don't make a portal for the group back to main hub?
Yeah, this is what will happen to them soon.
Joke aside, kinda sad they killed him. He is a geniunely interesting character, but i guess having him make a portal back to Arathi is a bit too good for the story. Because, as he explained, it's a logistic cheats.
Because right now, lore-wise, Arathi Highland, specifically Stormgarde Keep is controlled by Alliance.edit: oops, apparantly the Arathi in Hollowfall came from Arathi Empire that located "beyond the storming sea" and is unrelated to the Arathi Highland/Stormgarde (not my fault they have the same name okay? apparantly The arathi in hollowfall also only been there for a decade-ish)Jaina could do it later probably, but her and Thrall is busy rallying both faction troops.I just realized, Jaina isn't really well known for her teleportation skill, you guys know that one mage that open portal to Azeroth during WoD, that let us build our Garison? i wonder where that mage is right now.

This is it! The energy crackling from these crabs is charged with teleportation magic! I just need to extract it and adjust the formula-- I can do this, my new friend! I just need another hand. Help me test this?

<The pieces fit together to form a simple, but dark picture. The Order of Night did not want Wenren to create a portal back to the Empire. No doubt reinforcements and supplies would hinder their mission. So, someone stabbed him, burned his research, and smashed his tools.
