So, my super awesome guy bought me a Battered Hilt. I feel sort of bad that he did, but then...I have the worst luck in the universe when it comes to things dropping, so I was super excited. I was planning on paying him back for it, but luckily another hilt dropped while we were in HoR and he won it..so he told me not to worry about it. Yay :D
I know that it'll get replaced eventually, but I mostly wanted it for the lore-value. I did part of the quest-chain on the PTRs, but doing it for real was totally epic! I don't think it can be nearly as epic if your character isn't a Blood Elf. It was just awesome. I can't wait for David's paladin to do the quests so I can go with him and see it all again. :3
I took screen shots of some of the more epic parts. Click to enbiggen:
Kalegos being like "I'MMA KEEP AN EYE ON YOU, ELF"
Lana'thel telling the story of the Quel'Delar and ranting about how much she hates it/showing off her crazy.
Headed to the Sunwell. I really miss the Isle of Quick'Dollars. :(
Lem and the spirit of Thalorien Dawnseeker. They appear to be checking something out off camera. :D
The most epic screenshot ever! I was sooo excited to be here. I've never seen the Sunwell: we didn't raid it back in BC, and I've never even been there for an achievement run. I may or may not have RP walked down the ramp that leads to its room.
Lem kneeling at the edge of the Sunwell, preparing to cleanse the Quel'Delar.
Rommath, Theron, and Lem watching as the Sunwell cleanses the Quel'Delar of the Scourge's taint! (See the sparkles?!)
The quest dialog.
Turning in the quest in Dalaran. He yells it zonewide, and I got about 30 gratses from random people. It was weird because I didn't think it was a big enough deal to send a stranger a whisper to congratulate about, but whatever. Maybe people were bored. :)
