TheWoWDBMy wife is a gnome warlock. When Matthis said this she got very offended and threatened his life. We went on after his first target on the next mission. He turned up when Klem was on 3% and killed him as we had nearly downed him. My wife was incandecent with him so targeted him and typed /punch. Unfortunatly he despawned as she did this leaving her with "You Punch Yourself" I nearly died laughing.

Even I get hunted. I suppose that's what I get for hiding amongst the sheep. <Mathias studies you for a moment.> The Twilight's Hammer has taken it up a notch and sent their dark assassins after me. Nice bunch of guys. Dead now. They're made from the souls of the most skilled killers. Want to do me a favor? Hunt them down. Bring back their soul pendants.

Where this quest fits
Before this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Just You and Garona
That's a heavy blow to our efforts. Damn that Cho'gall! It's a good thing that the squad commander told you where to find Garona.
After this quest
Taken from the storyline's own step order.
- Bring the Hammer Down
No foray into the field would be complete without a good old-fashioned take-the-bad-guys-out kind of mission. Between the citadel veterans, the corrupted elementalists, and the twilight vindicators, I'm sure you'll have plenty of targets. How you choose to kill them is up to you.
