Even when he's defeated, he manages to steal any satisfaction in it from his chief rival
Maiev Shadowsong, the Night Elf warden responsible for keeping Ilidan locked up, had made it her life's mission to track him down and kill him. With the help of adventurers, she finally manages this in his Sanctum on Outland. However, the Betrayer's last words effectively kill any sense of accomplishment, however short-lived, that she may have had.
"You have won... Maiev... But the huntress... is nothing... without the hunt... You... are nothing... without... me..."
It's true, really. Now that he's dead, what will Maiev do? She has no purpose other than hunting him - in a way, her life is over as well, which she herself acknowledges.
Which begs the question, now that he's back, is Maiev secretly thrilled?
