After a failed attempt to grow a copy of an Arcan’dor in Eldrethalas, taking advantage of the ley lines there but failing to take into account the fel corruption still lingering, Beurghes decides to cut his loses – and loose ends. He set off to kill the Highborne that had worked with him on the experiment, and hoped to get rid of Mythandos all the same. He no longer needed the Nighborne as well.
Ahead of time he had called for the Sentinels under a false claim of a ‘Horde spy’ had been spotted in the city and certainly a danger to those there, Beurghes hoping that the Sentinels would corner Mythandos and blame him for the carnage. But Mythandos had caught up to Beurghes and after the double crossing reveal a scuffle ensued. Mythandos had a hidden blade and managed to land a strike, stabbing the rampaging lion in the eye.
