Description Edit

With the undead outbreak contained, the time has come for Stillwater and his followers to answer for their crimes. Though we averted a tragedy the likes of which has not been seen since the Scourge invaded, we must ensure that such a thing can never happen again. They will all face true death!

Come, <name>! I will have Stillwater's head!

Progress Edit

Do not waste my time, <name>.

Completion Edit

I will deliver this head to the Banshee Queen personally. Of course I will make mention of your part in all of this, <name>.

As for your reward - take from Stillwater's cache whatever you desire. You earned it.

Rewards Edit

You will be able to choose one of these rewards

	[Stillwater's Signet]		[Stillwater's Cloak]
	[Stillwater's Dagger]

Notes Edit

Warden Stillwater says: Lydon!? Alive?

Warden Stillwater says: Now I know where your allegiances lie, <name>!

Warden Stillwater says: And you, Jenny? I thought we had a connection. You've broken my heart for the last time.

Master Apothecary Lydon says: Warden Stillwater, you are deranged and a threat to our way of life. By authority of the Dark Lady herself, I hereby impose upon you the harshest penalty under Forsaken law - true death.

Master Apothecary Lydon says: That goes for all of you traitorous scum who supported this fool!

Master Apothecary Lydon says: KNEEL!

Warden Stillwater says: I AM A THREAT? I AM DERANGED?!

Warden Stillwater says: What I've created here is an evolution! THIS is how the Forsaken will thrive, not through some magical winged fairy sprinkling happy dust on corpses!

Warden Stillwater says: Kill them all! They will serve as subjects for our next study!

When taken to 0% of health, he transforms into a monstrosity and knocks back everyone, killing his followers in the process.

Warden Stillwater yells: You think that you've won? THINK AGAIN! Stand before my new form and tremble!
