Wow so much profit :P

Today I was fighting warriors and sharmans in the area to the south east of Asthanaar.. when guild member Jackman got me to help him get a protection scroll since I was there and you can only get it there.. he was far away in wetlands.. the other continent..
it only costed me 9 silver or so..
heheeh but he paid me 1 gold + some superior gloves of the monkey! XD

[Oh yeh~ i finally can show you a screenie! I just pasted it onto paint cos I don't have the program to convert wow pics to Jpgs :)]

Final Destination

A while ago I had a goal, it was small then..
My goal was shattered when I found out that I had no way of getting back to Moonglade and Darkshore after I had hearthed home to Stormwind..:(
But today, I found out by asking around and doing some research that I Could go there again. Just that it would take me a long time.. but lots of interesting expeditions would perhaps come from it..
I travelled from Stormwind to Loch Modan where I realised I had a long lost quest waiting for me to do, it was too hard for me to do at that time, but lately my skills have been advanced and so I felt I could take on such creatures..
My duties included:
Traverse Dun Algaz.
Kill 8 Dragonmaw Scouts and 6 Dragonmaw Grunts.
Report to Valstag Ironjaw in Menethil Harbor.
---
All was in my plan as I needed to go to the Harbour in order to travel to my designated place..
However.. those scoundrels were so ruthless they jumped on me and teared me apart many times.. I was on the verge of giving up when at last help was there for only that moment, delaying the attacks and enabling me to complete half of my quest..
The rest of my quest awaited me.. I just needed to venture further into unknown lands..
It was fun, but it was long and slightly boring..
I cut across the wetlands and encountered some strange beasts on the way.. I skinned some dragons that others had killed and when I finally reached Menethil Bay I swam across the sea to the Harbour.. there I connected the flight path yey~
I was tired.. I went and talked to some quest givers and got some gifts from the trick or treat lady..
After resting in a boat that was not moving [I was waiting and waiting for it to move but it was actually a boring statue boat just for looks!] I ran towards the other side of the pier and just missed my boat to Kamildor :S
So then I went swimming for some stranglekelps and just made it for the next boat..
Man I was relieved I caught that one..
However.. when I arrived, I was in a strange land, it was gloomy and dark and had no life in it..
I wondered where it was...
I asked and researched on it.. Apparently it was a dangerous place to be in if I walked a step outside the town :S
I realised I had caught the wrong boat! dang... the other boat on the opposite side of the pier would go to the place I wanted!...
Decisions decisions.. what was I to do? I asked a friend who said that I could either catcha boat back and catch the other one.. or I pay some silver to ride the griffon .. but that would take a longer time..
Catching the boat was more of a hassle so I decided to pay some silver and enjoy the nice view below me... There sure were a lot of strange creatures and much land to explore.. "Nice" I thought.. because it means I won't be bored hehe..
Upon arrival I needed to do some errands like sort out my quests from last time.. and also look for the place on the map..
I was to head for Ashenvale which was south of Darkshore and Auberdine [where I had landed]
So I walked and walked and tried not to let any temptations of lucious flowers or beasts interrupt me hehe... but I still had to kill some.. maybe should have killed more, for I had some quests to do there.. but.. no time.. I had a goal and I was determined to meet it..
Man, that was a long walk.. asking for guidance along the way.. and getting yet another trick or treat.. this time it was trick.. but a nice one.. I got a ninja suit :)
Finally!!!!! I arrived at the designated place! I went in and found the lady Shandria [i think was her name] and asked to buy the book.. it costed 1 Gold! wow.. all the way for that... what was the book?
The Expert Cook book! "Ohhh" you might say "bleh cooking" some others might say.. but it was my dream to be an experienced cook and now I could achieve it!
Lovely.. I held that book delicately in my hands and learnt alll that was needed! now I can cook more complicated things.. so lovely.. XD

Phew.. well that was my adventure.. such a long one..but many things learnt and well worth it.. [I have more interesting things to do and explore now ;) no more boring redridge mountains.. hated them.. the gnolls.. the trolls grr.. ]
:D

Playing with fire& falling down ditches

ooh forgot to say.. but everytime i pass by those fire things on the sides of the auction house.. i get burnt! like 10 to 15 health taken off each time! =(
lucky I don't die easy hehe..
I also tend to fall down or jump down cliffs and that takes my health away too~
Once I was so scared I'd fall down in the lava.. or drown in the pond~
and then there was once where i saw some guy on a dragon(?) jump down from the bridge in ironforge to some metal surface that had holes so you can see the lava beneath.. and then i accidently followed him.. phew i didnt die..

The auction house..and the firework

It is quite a busy place.. soo many different races there..
I would just walk around and ppl were saying stuff really loud or laughing at stuff..
I learned how to put some auctions up.. and i sold my Silverleaf within a few minutes!
Then I went to check my mail~ yey~ silver pieces :P
Next I was curious so I went walking and looking for professions.. the skinning and Herbalism ones hehe..and then I saw these pvp/npc gnomes around this central area.. and inside a small cave on one side there was a gnome that sold fireworks.. i wondered what they were.. I asked Sam who was beside me.. he told me to just try them..
they cost One silver! i only had like maybe 20 at that time.. hehe
so I bought one.. and i wanted to try it out..
I went to the middle of the bridge near the auction house and i clicked on it..
a small little fire spark went up in the air.. but no firework came down like fireworks do! aww such a waste of money..

The first time I died

Akino in first person:
I remember clearly, the first time I died.. I was attacking way too many Trolls at once.. they were ganging up on me.. and then the "Low Health" sign started to flash so I decided to run.. hoping I could outrun them.. but no.. i died..
When I was lying there, a msg popped up saying "release spirit in 6 mins" with a button to click release now.. so I asked for help..
someone told me to stay there hehe.. and they added me to a group/party..
but i clicked release and ended up in the grave.. I didn't know where to find my body.. so the guy helped me.. i think he was about lv 27..
He killed all the trolls!! in like a few blows~
so it was goood~ i got to get the treasure for a quest i was doing..
I dunno what a lv 27 was doing there in low lvl land hehe..

Akino begins

Akino is a cute little rogue with brownish hair in pigtails.. she is only about a third the size of a human, and loves to jump around in the snow..
She started off in the snowy lands of Coldridge and attempted her first missions..
She first had to slay some wolves, then she had to slay some bears for their meat and ribs.. then she had to go sneak around some trolls to get their treasures..
She got confused with places and jumped around clicking at every npc/pvp..
One day she met Gj, who was also a Gnome but a guy who didnt speak english very well..
They exchanged hi's and byes and sat around the fireplace while Akino sorted out her stats..
She did not see him again for a while.. but a few days later he PM'd her.. She wondered.. how did he know she was online at that time? [Later she found out that it was because he added her to his friends' list..]
She asked him, but he didnt seem to understand.. so that was left there..
She was off on her missions again.. dying once or twice and being revived by the angel by the grave.. with the cost of losing 25% armour durability and some stats..
she slowly gains her levels.. and with the help of a friend, she starts to go further into the lands of Dun Morough..she passes Anvilmar, and then goes thru the tunnel to Kharnos.. and finally to Iron Forge where she learns her first two professions.. Skinning and Herbalism.. She also learns that Flowers & Leather = silver coins when you put them up for auction at the auction house at Iron Forge..
She also learns that you can check your email! :P
All is overwhelming for the little gnome.. so she takes a little rest...
Stay tuned for the continued adventures..soon..

The start of a new era...
