Once you manage to find the Soul Sparks and return to Tal’Ratha, he will reveal himself, and you will engage in a conversation with him. Afterward, he will make an unusual request: Tal’Ratha will ask to eat you. As strange as it may sound, he appears to be serious about this request. Fortunately, this is not the only option available to you.
What Happens If You Let Tal’Ratha Eat You
If you decide to followTal’Ratha’s request andallow him to eat you, he will literally do just that. After a cutscene showing you being swallowed by him, you will find yourself ina different location.
Here, you will faceTal’Ratha (Metaphysical), a strange and powerful version of the creature that you must defeat. It’s important to note that Tal’Ratha (Metaphysical) poses agreater challenge compared to the standard bossfight with him, so some may choose to avoid this choice.
Focus your attacks on Tal’Ratha (Metaphysical)‘shead.
