You will die without honor.

When you have an advantage so strong that your opponent is literally
helpless, it's not even a game anymore. Any satisfaction you derive
from killing someone that low comes from a warped outlook, not from the
genuine flush of success at having fought and won a battle.

I can sort of see a reason for it. I'd taken my level 20 troll priest to Sun
Rock Retreat to train in enchanting, and a night elf warrior, in full epic
regalia, killed me about 5 times in a row in the retreat while I was trying
to escape. She did _not_ kill the wind rider master, however; what she was
doing (or I think she was doing that) was griefing enough lower levels for
some 60's to come to the rescue for her to fight. She was out of luck (and
apparently a bit stupid, though) since the Crossroads was under a full-scale
raid at the time; the 60's were busy there. If she wanted a fight, she
should have just gone to the Crossroads with her allies. :P

Then again, maybe she just wanted to gank and didn't care about honor. I
considered logging on Bovinis and going to fight her (I almost certainly
would have lost against her epics, though), but that was before I saw the
raid in the Crossroads, and I needed to log anyway, so I just let it go.
