"The god's resurrection must not be disturbed, Orcs. In the name of the Mantid paragons, I will stop you from passing through here." The Mantid paragons who had slumbered in the Dread Wastes had not remained there to assist Grand Empress Shek'zeer. Instead, they had followed the Alliance High King Varian Wrynn—or rather, the Heart of Y'Shaarj—to Stormwind.

Malkorok, Ariok, Jorin Deadeye, Thura Saurfang, Alex Coldwind, Gude Grimtotem, Shadow Hunter Bokan, Asas Bleedingheart, Luminus Sunscar, and Dakulo Warfang all chose to face the powerful Mantid paragons, allowing their Warchief, Rend Blackhand, to deal directly with the Alliance High King, Varian Wrynn.
