The Mage They Call Jayne(z)
2009-09-19
I write th is today, January 11th, 2007. I've been writing about the World of Warcraft: Burning Crusade beta for three months now, and I just tallied it up--up to the beginning of this entry, I've written one hundred and twenty-two pages. That's a lot of writing.
To be fair, this isn't, chronologically, the last ending. The one that came, uh, "before" this one covering the crazy alpha-and-omega End of Beta, End of the World!(of Warcraft) event is, of course, the last one. Ain't no more happening after that. Still, I don't know. This one feels like more of a proper send-off, and since I want to give this journal o' mine a proper send-off... this is the one.
And to help me make this particularly entry better than any that's come before... I'm not alone! Joining me here is forum personality extraordinare, the master of all that is Warcraft lore-related himself... he talks the talka, and he walks the walka. Yep, a big thanks to Ghostwalka for helping out with this, and just commenting when he sees fit. I really appreciate it. You're the man now, dog!

Ghostwalka: 'ey bruddahs and Sistahs. I'm sittin' in for the ride dis time. I'm also goin' to be crackin' wise on and with ol' Jayne 'ere. I'll fill in some fun tidbits of lore and whatnot as well.
So! Time to get this show on the road! With an extra 30% awesome! Yes, at 130% awesome, this is 50% over the legal limit!
I'm such a rebel.
GW: ...without a cause.

Last time, I left off going to explore Outland with my trusty companion, the Tawny Wind Rider They Call Terrence. Naturally I start off by going to Hellfire Peninsula and doing some nifty fly-bys of the Dark Portal. I then head on over to Honor Hold, where I land on a rooftop and start nuking the Alliance down below. Silly level 60s. After about five or so minutes of rooftop camping, three level 72 guards spawn right behind me on the roof and kill me. I don't know if that was supposed to happen or if that was just a GM having some fun--I rather suspect the latter. Anyway, they've since added mechanisms to foil such aerial assaults.
GW: The question is... why do they have them over Area 52 and Cenarian Expedition? Its not like we can dog fight... maybe if we make trouble, some of the Goblin Death Machines or Cenarion Ravens will come down and maim us... We'll find out!
