Ernest Hemmingway

[UNREST]

The quest giver Hemet Nesingwary Is a reference to the author Ernest Hemingway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

There are alot of references to him in WOW and It seems to be as a memorial, as he commited suicide. One of these references is the quest Green Hills of Stranglethorn - Page 1 - Item - World of Warcraft which is a reference to the book Green Hills of Africa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia which actualy the pages are revelent to the real book.

As an extra, He commited suicide at Abercrombie & Fitch - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia which im sure if it isn't already a reference will soon be one.
