Faced with Rend's bold speculation, Rokhan and Chen Stormstout both fell silent, neither directly confirming nor denying it.
"Then it's true." Beastmaster Rexxar understood Rokhan and Chen Stormstout's personalities. Both of them were tacitly admitting it.
Having learned this secret, Rend hurried into the spiritual realm to ask Agamaggan, the Quilboar demigod.
