Description

We got here, tore the place apart, and headed toward the prison house. We weren't expecting what we found in there, <name>. Seems the Crusade's been real busy. That whole thing is full of Argent Dawn prisoners. Most of them were already dead by the time we arrived, but a few were still breathing.

I was about to go in there and execute the rest of them, but I think you should have the honors. In particular, there's a real feisty troll in there that I think you'll take great pleasure in executing.

This one is the second most sad, only behind the night elf one, in my opinion. I had already rolled a Tauren so I knew it was sad, but when he called me the "mojo masta" on my troll I really got depressed. I don't want to kill anyone who thinks I am the mojo masta :(
