Cataclysm: Gamon, legendary villain of Orgrimmar, made even more elite

I must be out there in the night, staying vigilant. Wherever the darkness stirs, I will be there. Wherever an inn is threatened, I will be there. Wherever a rogue needs to finish a quest, I will be there. Lurking. Watching.
For at any moment, I know the foul villain Gamon may return to threaten my people.
Years ago, Gamon posed no threat -- a simple two-bit crook; a level 12 drunkard. Gamon bided his time in the Valley of Strength's inn (specifically, dead on the inn's floor). Many ignored him. But those of us, those of us with a sixth sense ... we knew that he needed to be stopped before it was too late.
They laughed at me. Called me a fool. Stopped me from doing what must be done.
And so, sinister Gamon obtained the legendary Tazan's Key. And before they could stop him, dark, foul Gamon unlocked the secrets of Tazan's Satchel, accessing the dark magicks inside. The once quiet Gamon is now ... a level 85 elite. And despite his quiet manner, he threatens the very safety of not just low-level rogues trying to finish a quest, but the entire world. A cunning villain, he still resists the urge to attack unless he is attacked first. But even so, his kill count is rising. He must be stopped.
I don't eat. I don't sleep. I keep watch over the Valley of Strength's inn, making sure Gamon stays dead on the inn's floor. The needs of the world outweigh the needs of the level 10 rogue trying to complete a quest.
I am Foxlight. And Gamon ... I will destroy you. Over and over again, every five minutes, until you stop respawning.

Gamon is Mysterion. Nobody remembers him dying, and he always reappears in the inn shortly afterward.

Is he really out-door if he's always at the inn?

Wake up! The true threat is not Gamon - but Foxlight!
Gamon is a puppet!
