Around Azeroth: A big fish tale
Submitter Gryffud of Garrosh (US-A) was exploring Tirisfal Glades when he stumbled upon this gruesome tableau out in the middle of a lake. What could explain this mysterious death? A jealous fishing buddy? An angry murloc? An errant goblin copter, smuggling weaponry to Northrend, that suddenly had to drop its cargo to avoid a crash landing? I kind of like the last possibility.

At the bottom of the lake surrounding that island, there's a wrecked flying machine. It doesn't really explain the scene, but it adds more to the mystery. Did she or he do the deed themselves after realizing there aren't man edible fish in Tirisfal? Did Captain Placeholder do it? We may never know.

Yes! My friend and I noticed that when we found it a few months ago, I think it's gnome-made as well? And a curiously intricate chest on the other side of the lake...

Nat Pagle is not a suspect, but he is a person of interest.

How come no one mentioned the circle of mushrooms with the fey dragons? I think thats more interesting than a dead fisherman...

I believe you will see it on Around Azeroth, once WoW Insider receives a good screenshot of it.

Considering where the sword was plunged into the victim, I suspect an angry wife... the GF got away....
