***SPOILERS BELOW***
Rastakhan & Bwonsamdi make a deal...
At the end of this quest, that cutscene that plays showing the pact made between Bwonsamdi and King Rastakhan... so chilling!
King Rastakhan says to Princess Talanji, after he sells his soul to the loa: "I've taken care of everything."
Reminds you a bit of that unspoken deal between Ner'zhul and Arthas all those years ago, as Ner'zhul speaks to Arthas through Frostmourne...
"You no longer need to bear the weight of your crown. I've taken care.. of everything"That irrevocable pact made with death; that point of no return...
Stay on the dino after you complete the quest. Head up the hill where King Rastakhan was standing. You will find Princess Talanji standing up there in his place. You must have dismounted from the dino in order to turn it in.
