The Price of Honor

Near Hearthglen, Tirion fought an orc he initially knew only as an enemy. When the ruined tower collapsed around them, Eitrigg pulled him from the wreckage. The rescue left the paladin with a debt that the laws governing their peoples did not recognize.

His defense of Eitrigg led to disgrace and exile. Even then, Tirion returned to prevent the orc’s execution in Stratholme. An attack by Thrall’s forces gave him the chance to free the prisoner.

Outside the city, Tirion called upon the Light to heal Eitrigg and found that it still answered. He had lost office and home, but the act that had condemned him had not made compassion impossible. Eitrigg returned to his people; Tirion faced the life of an outcast.
