"Question!" Sylvanas raised her hand. "Then are Frostsaber Guardians rare?"
Yu Lin Bloodhawk felt a cloud of exasperation settle over him. Has this girl gotten addicted to rare pets? Still, he answered, "They're a relatively uncommon species.

After marking the map, he pointed at it with a wooden stick. "As far as
