Novice Thaivand Can Take Helcular’s Rod And…

Well, let’s just say he can put it somewhere rather unpleasant.

Needless to say, I spent a couple of hours killing yetis in Hillsbrad Foothills in order to find Helcular’s Rod for Novice Thaivand (Helcular’s Revenge quest). As if that wasn’t bad enough, after returning the rod to him, Thaivand gave me a pat on the back, handed the rod back to me, and sent me out to do more deeds. Well, thank you very little!

Someone really needs to talk to this fellow about his people skills. I’ve quested enough to know that after killing a few hundred yetis, I should expect a little more compensation than a pat on the back. Let’s face it, the respect of Novice Thaivand won’t pay the bills.

I should have been tipped off right away just by the looks of this guy. He hangs out in a graveyard all day in a nasty, tattered robe. I should have known that he wasn’t going to pay much for this errand. Not to mention, he obviously sent a few others on the same task, because I bumped into a rogue and warlock looking for the same thing. Geez!

Unfortunately, it was late after all this yeti carnage, so I had to rest. With my luck, after sticking this rod in a few fires, Novice Thaivand will want me to raise the dead with it!
