TheWoWDBI'm a Forsaken, and i've been a Forsaken since 2007. This is the best undead quest yet.
When we first saw Lillian Voss, she was already turned and we got to know what was her story throughout the new forsaken starting zone (since Cataclysm) and all she wanted was revenge. So, pretty bland really.
It's so good to see someone and his family before he turns, what he expected of the "gift" of undeath, and how he changed in undeath.
I hope to see more of Thomas Zelling in the future.

What to do
Description
Let's move. Zelling is probably with his family now. Either they're happily reunited and he helps us find Valentine... or he just helps us find Valentine. Let's go.
Where to go
Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.
