    Won'sa said the quilboar have kidnapped the missing expedition... including my daughter. The quilboar will kill you if you're not prepared. They're much smarter and deadlier than murlocs. I won't see you die by their hands. We're going to spar one last time.

  • Taming the WildsExile's Reach · Level 1-5

    A hunter like yourself needs a good pet by your side. Did you not bring one with you? Hmm. I suppose I shall have to compensate for your lack of training. Listen closely and learn quickly. I will teach you how to tame a beast and make it your pet. You will need one if you are to fight the quilboar.
