As you enter Orgrimmar, a guard exclaims, "Never thought I'd see one of your kind walk through here."
After a pause: "Come on through. The Warchief's expecting you."
Ji Firepaw follows you around as if you know what you're doing. Guess who's the brains of this operation?

Further in, you pass by [npc=62195] who yells, "Look! It's Ji Firepaw and <name>! They're the ones who helped [npc=64593] escape from the Alliance!"

Nearing 'Emperor Hellscream' you find the [object=206109], wherein Ji runs ahead and exclaims, "Look at this!" After skimming: "Well, that's good news. Once we join the Horde, we certainly won't run out of things to do." Assuming he survives long enough.

Enter the building behind and you find Garrosh Hellscream, who notices you right away: "Pandaren! Approach."
Your companion runs ahead again and kneels before Garrosh. "Emperor Hellscream, I am Ji..."
Garrosh yells: "That's WARCHIEF Hellscream!" Calming down, he practically growls, "Now, rise. We should talk, pandaren."

Welcome, Fodder. Time to serve the HORDE!
