The line comes from the Russian localisation of Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, released by Blizzard in 2002, during Arthas Menethil's campaign in Northrend with Muradin Bronzebeard at his side. Muradin, the dwarven explorer and mentor figure, repeatedly tries to pull Arthas back as the prince grows obsessed with vengeance and the cursed blade Frostmourne. Short dramatic lines from the Russian dub later circulated on gaming forums and soundboards, where this plea survived as a compact, recognisable warning that Warcraft players still quote in chats, streams and fan edits.
