"It seems you don't want to talk here." With a thought from Patrick, the space around them rapidly shifted. "Then let's go somewhere else."
As soon as he finished speaking, Patrick and Gruul were teleported outside the lair.
The sudden change in their surroundings made Gruul abruptly stop attacking. He also realized that the elf before him was not someone he could afford to provoke.
"Even after entering Azeroth, you remain the strongest wielder of earth elements." Patrick looked into Gruul's single eye. "I hope you will do more to maintain the stability of this world's energies."
Neltharion was already dead. He had once held the highest authority bestowed by the Titans, wielding the power of the earth on their behalf. The few who remained, such as Onyxia, were utterly insignificant compared with Gruul. Moreover, it was clear that even Therazane the Stone Mother was no match for Neltharion when it came to earth elements. On Azeroth now, Gruul was the strongest living wielder of earth elements.
Not only that, but Gruul's control over earth elements exceeded imagination. Compared with the delicate ways shamans, mages, warlocks, and other classes used energy, Gruul's way of wielding earth elements could only be called violent.
