The enchantress proprietor of the Misfortune Tavern was indeed a considerate and kind-hearted person. After downing a glass of "Midnight" in one gulp, Danton began to complain, "Why is it that as a holy knight, I have to be accompanied by a group of followers from the dark forces?" "Sometimes, pretending to be a death knight isn't so bad!" the proprietress insincerely comforted, then scolded a few busty succubus maids who kept rubbing against Danton. "No one wants to deal with undead creatures all day long. With them around, I can't even attract a single girl," Danton lamented. "The ghoul legion doesn't care about anything other than fresh meat. They consistently skip their classes on gentlemanly conduct. The abomination legion has become obsessed with bandages, thinking that slightly yellow linen is the epitome of fashion. They've wrapped themselves up like mummies. Even the succubus maid legion is openly demanding paid vacations!" "Forget about those troubles. We've captured some sacrificial dancers today. Would you like to stay and enjoy their performance?" the proprietress suggested. "No, the crops on the farm are ripe. I have to go back and keep an eye on those ogre slaves, or they'll slack off!" Leaving behind three gold coins from Lordaeron, Danton walked out of the Misfortune Tavern, feeling frustrated.
