The Reunion That Never Came

Living in exile, Tirion sought a way to reach Taelan inside the Scarlet Crusade. An adventurer carried the objects and message that could remind his son of their family. The appeal succeeded: Taelan chose to leave Hearthglen and find his father.

Isillien stopped him on the road. The inquisitor killed the paladin he had once influenced, turning the attempted departure into an execution. Tirion reached the confrontation and killed Isillien, but could no longer save Taelan.

Over his son’s body, Tirion resolved to renew the work of the Silver Hand. His return was not a restoration of the family life he had lost. It was a commitment to act against the evil that had taken it, a duty he could no longer set aside.
