(King of Kul Tiras? That was impossible.)
"If all we need to do is destroy her ability to cast spells, that couldn't be simpler." The runes on Illidan's body began to glow, and an intense aura of fel erupted.

"Tandred, I'll leave him to you." Patrick lifted Jaina, and Bigby's Crushing Hand seized her before tossing her to Tandred. "As for how you deal with her, that's an internal matter for Kul Tiras. Quel'Thalas won't interfere."
