Quest connections
Abominable Creatures and Unending Torment document two distinct quest uses of the boss’s head. Their individual objective records control the item and step requirements.
Name discrepancy
The historical client encounter name The Butcher and creature The Baron remain separate source fields. See the retained comparison; no confirmed rename is inferred.
