After escaping their Horde captors, the Alliance and Jinyu prisoners were able to seek sanctuary in Pearlfin Village, home of the Pearlfin tribe. Bold Karasshi convinced his people to allow the Alliance to stay in the Village until Admiral Taylor has fully recovered. Even before the Alliance formalized their association with the Pearlfin Jinyu, Karasshi became a helpful ally of the shipwrecked Alliance survivors as he sent his brother Little Lu to guide the SI:7 agents in the foreign wilderness.
