The Unexpected - Level 11-13



Location: Crossroads
Level: 14
Latest Achievements: "50 Quests Completed" + "Journeyman Herbalism" + "Explore Mulgore" + "25 Fish"
Total Quests Completed: 53



I thought I would finish up the quests here in Thunder Bluff and Mulgore before I moved off into Crossroads. I also planned on leveling my staff and mace again (as I had achieved a level and needed to cap again), but my unexpected quest decided to change all that.

While I was leveling my inscription, I saw a '!' walking around in the Pools of Vision. She wanted me to deliver a token to the grave of someone. I accepted and searched my map for the place to deliver. Low and behold, it is far far away on the other continent.


So rather than level, I set off to deliver. I thought I might as well grab that quest while it's red, and good experience. Luck for me I know the world from previous play. I guess if you didn't, a little research or chatting up the other players would help you find it.

It was a hell of a run; first to Orgrimmar, then wait for the zeppelin to Tristfal Glade, and then run down to the Silverpine Forest. The run itself did not take long, 30 minutes tops, and the experience you get is minimal (500), but the areas were safe for level 12 and it was my first chance experience into other areas.

I passed up a lot of '!' along the way. The only thing I stopped for was flight paths.

After I returned, via hearthstone, I set about finishing the last few quests for Mulgore. According to Thottbot, there were 3 left that I hadn't yet completed, Two of which were started with items dropped. The wolf was a little tricky to find, but it was not too bad.

Thought I'd get an achievement for finishing all the Mulgore quests.... nope. Maybe I'm missing something, but I could swear I have them all. (Edit later to add that apparently, unlike the new kingdoms from Burning Crusade and Northrend, there is no achievement for completing quests.)

Time to set off to Crossroads (I can fly there now) and start some more tricky quests.
