Calibre and Wildstyle

I hadn't seen Bageezus in a while and I wanted to go find him. So I went back to Thunder Bluff which was the first place I had met him. Thinking he would be somewhere around there, I looked on every tier of the city. Yes, I even walked across the scary bridges by myself. Sadly I could not find him. I sat at the bottom of Thunder Bluff by the lifts hoping that he would come. Time went by and still no Bageezus.
Off in the distance I could see an Orc and Tauren riding choppers in the hills. They looked like they were having a lot of fun. I dismissed Abatai, who was annoying the crap out of me at that point, got on my Venomhide Ravasaur and ran down to where they were. I really wanted to see the cool bikes. As I was making my way down there a dog came running towards me. As I'm up on my Ravasaur the dog leaps into the air and snatches my leg off. The Orc came running towards us yelling at the dog. "Aki give her back her leg right now!" She was so sweet, she apologized a hundred times as she gave me back my leg. She introduced herself as well as her husband, and I did the same. Calibre, Orc Hunter and her husband Wildstyle, Tauren Druid. oh and her hunter pet Aki. They were very nice folks and asked if I wanted to ride with them. Calibre offered to take me around in her side car. I've never seen anything like this. This was awesome!  We rode all around Mulgore and I was able to discover all the places I've never been to before. I spent the most part of the day with Calibre and Wildstyle.
Being around the two of them made me miss my Bageezus more. Calibre knew something was bothering me so she asked and I told. Wildstyle, being a Druid, asked if I checked Moonglade, Druid Haven. I sooo blanked on trying to check there for him.They offered to come along with me to try and find him, but I did have a prior engagement with my guild and despite my eagerness to find Bageezus I really didn't feel like getting yelled at for not making a raid. Calibre and Wildstyle offered me an open ticket to join their guild "Mulgore County Choppers" if my current guild turns out to be not what I had hoped for in a guild. The guild has been good to me so far so I don't see any plans to jump ship just yet. I need to try my hand at something new. I've been all over the place questing and getting achieves that I needed to get my feet wet with raiding and doing stuff as a group getting better gear and such.
As I left my new friends I couldn't help but to imagine Bageezus and I looking at each other the same way. Full of love and unconditional devotion despite a drastic race difference.

Minions and Guild

As much as I loved to do things by myself and ask no one for help I was getting a bit lonely. I see Bageezus every once in a while and Medelys comes out sometimes when she's in the mood. My demons only give me so much entertainment before they get boring and I end up dismissing them. Don't get me wrong I love my minions. Zhar'gak, my voidwalker, is probably my favorite. He protects me when things are trying to hurt me. He's my big blueberry. Then there's Disora my Succubus. She's a trip. I want to put clothes on her she looks like a hooker. She carries around a whip, I'm so embarassed to be seen with her. Jhaaghon is my felhunter. He's like my pokey dog. Silencing my enemies if they try to cast something on me is great. But he doesn't talk to me so he's not very good to keep around if I need company. And last but not least is Abatai my Imp. He is probably the most entertaining out of the 4 and at the same time the most annoying. Always complains about stuff. Just to be nice, I took him to the blacksmith the other day because he wanted hoops in his ears. What in the world!!! that just goes to show you that even Imps get suckered into the current trend. He saw all the blood elf girls with earrings and he wanted some. *sigh* what am I gonna do with you Abatai.
Anywhos, moving on... Being lonely and needing or wanting people to converse with sounded like a fun thing to do. Bageezus told me all about it. It's called a Guild. A group of people that either are there for social, leveling, or raiding reasons. They help each other out if someone needs help or they just say "tough luck noob you're on your own". That's the part I don't like but I'd like to try to start doing things as a group, and I guess that comes along with it. There's always gonna be someone arrogant who thinks that they're better then you. BUT I actually was willing to try it out and I'm glad I did. I started grouping to run dungeons with my guild. They helped me with my talents and spec. I never knew there was so much to this DPS thing I kept hearing about. Warlocks don't need strength and agility dummy. We need Intellect and Haste, Hit, Crit and Spellpower. I was just wearing the clothes that looked the prettiest on me. Even though I'm dead, I still have some fashion sense. Alright time to buckle down and get serious about trying to be the best warlock I can be. I spent way too much time pooting around the lands killing things when I got upset. Now I have a purpose. Do better for the guild and try to get better gear. And most of all have fun doing it. Well maybe. After all we are fighting things that want to kill me.

New Friend Medelys

Everyone around Undercity was talking about this new place called Silvermoon City. So naturally I wanted to go check this place out. I needed to find out how to get there first. I ran to the Bat Handler Michael Garrett and asked to fly me to Silvermoon City. Apparently I couldn't fly there because I haven't talked to the flight master there yet. For pete's sake!!! That is a far far ways to go, and there's no way I'm gonna survive that travel. The zones that I have to pass is too high for me and creatures will eat me alive. "calm down little lady, there is a portal in the Ruins above Undercity that will take you directly to Silvermoon City". "Oh Thank you so much Mr. Garrett!" and off I went to find the portal.
Silvermoon City was absolutely gorgeous. The Blood Elves are all so exotic looking with their long pointy ears and stunning eyes. I'd like to think I was a blood elf in my previous life. So I mounted my dreadsteed and away we galloped through the city. The city was pretty empty so I figured there would be noone around, but of course I was wrong.  As I turned a corner I almost smacked head on into a young blood elf on her horse. I've been riding my dreadsteed for a while now so I know anything can happen so I always hold on for dear life when he's running. Well this blood elf didn't take the proper precautions and as her Charger came to a halt she went flying right into a nearby bush. "Are you CRAZY!!!" is all I could hear from the bush, and out pops a little girl with branches in her white pig tails. "You could have killed me!" I tried to apologize, but I couldn't get a word in edgewise. Knowing fully well that she was half to blame. If you don't know how to ride your mount, especially with your crusader aura on, then you shouldn't be riding at all. I really wanted to tell her that but it being her city and all, I bit my tongue. I think her ego was bruised a tad bit. I just learned how to make runecloth bandages so I offered to bandage her up. After that she was quite humble and offered to show me around her town.
"My name is Medelys" the young blood elf says to me. "Hi, Medelys. I'm Deadskully nice to meet you". In order to fly here I needed to find the flight master so Medelys showed me where she was. Skymistress Gloaming was her name. What kind of name is that, I thought. Eh, whatever I've seen weirder names. She had 2 amazing dragonhawks in the back of her ready to fly out if someone needed a ride anywhere. Unfortunately again, I was missing several flight paths in between here and Undercity so I couldn't jump on a dragonhawk and enjoy the scenery on a flight back to Undercity. Medelys offered to ride down to Tranquillian with me and speak to that flight master maybe that would give me connecting flight paths, so off we went. There were some towns people that asked for my help with some quests earlier and I turned them down. Medelys needed to help some people also so I went back to the people and accepted their quests and off we went down to Tranquillian and cranked out a bunch of quests while we made our way down there. It took us a good 2 hours or so to finish everything and reach the little town and speak to the flight master. WHAT! I still can't have a connecting flight path to Undercity!... oh cripes! ah well, as long as I know the portal is there in the Silvermoon I'll be fine. And I was having fun with Medelys so I figured to stay in Eversong forest for a little longer and help the towns people. And this little girl was growing on me. I felt like a big sister to her, and I could tell she was looking up to me for a lot of things.

New Friend Bageezus

I traveled to Mulgore to do some questing and I guess it was obvious that I was struggling to kill some harpies. As I almost was scratched and clawed within an inch of my life a tauren in shining armor came to save me. After he killed those 3 harpies that were attacking me he came over and picked me up and set me up against a tree, and he started to heal me. Turns out he's a Druid and made me feel all better. He had already finished his quests around this area but offered to help me with the rest of mine that I had. He let me know if you group up with someone it goes much faster. It was beneficial for the both of us because all the herbs we came across, he gathered up. I asked what they were for and he told me that he can make potions and flasks that help you with your stats, heal you, and many more. That sounded so awesome! I want to make myself healing potions. Bageezus has been around this world for a while and he knew that as much as Alchemy and herbalism would be a great trade to have, me being a cloth wearer I would benefit more from Tailoring. I could make myself clothes and enchanting would be a great second profession to have because I would be able to enchant all the clothes that I make. I knew Bageezus was so wise and he was only here to help me, so we went to Thunder Bluff and he showed me where the tailoring and enchanting trainers were.

Thunder Bluff was very neat. I wasn't to thrilled about the bridges that you have to walk across to the 3 different rises. All I could think about was the bridge breaking and my fragile bones falling to the ground and shattering into pieces. As Bageezus and I were crossing the bridge he noticed that I was clinging to him rather tightly. He asked what was wrong and I told him my worry. He said that if that ever happens he would be there to bring me back to life. That was the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me(that I can remember). It almost brought a tear to my dry dead eyes.
He had to go off to do some raiding with people in his guild. I had no clue what that meant, but he said he would find me again and explain it all to me, but people were waiting for him and I had to let him go. It was starting to get dark and I wasn't sure if I wanted to quest in the dark. I almost got killed in broad daylight, why would I want to go and do that in the dark. So I found my way to the Inn in Thunder Bluff and took a nap on the netted hammocks that they have in there. As I lay, I couldn't help but to dream of sweet and gentle Bageezus... so strong, so wise, so handsome. *sigh* ZZZZzzzzzzz.......

First days

As far back as I can remember:
I don't remember how I died or how I came back to live my new life in Azeroth.
I awoke in Shadow Grave, and several people were right there asking me to help them. I didn't have time to adjust to what had just happened to me. I just said "yes" to every single one of them.  As I helped them with these tasks I noticed I was getting better clothes to wear, as rewards, that would help me with my journey. The more I helped the better clothes I got. This was awesome! My quests led me to a nearby town called Brill and then onto a huge area called Undercity. I was told I had to seek out Lady Sylvanas Windrunner. Dispite her "Banshee Queen" title she was rather quiet and soft spoken. She explained to me a little bit of my mission in my afterlife and why I was brought back to life. I spent the next 3 hours or so walking around Undercity with her. While she talked I couldn't help but phase off trying to figure out how I was supposed to accomplish these tasks she was putting before me. So the Lich King sounds like a major douchebag and as much I'd like to kick his butt, I really don't think I can ever do it. She sensed my worry and understood my hesitation to accept this giant task. So she pointed me in the right direction to take my time and gradually work up to it. So I have a long ways to go as I travel around this new world and learn as much as I can from different trainers in different areas that will help me. She let me know that there are thousands of Horde forces working toward the same goal. So I don't feel too overwhelmed, and I can take my time.
So off I went to the first person I was told to see. Some dude named Richard Kerwin, a warlock trainer. I was a bit skeptical, but I figured ahh, what the heck, I could use a good laugh. I mean come on, I'm a warlock, what can this dude teach me that I don't already know. Boy was I wrong. He taught me how to cast and channel spells, learn pets that will help me in battle. Drop summoning stones, and teleports that will send me short distances. I love that I will have pets. I'm never going to be lonely in my travels that's for sure. Now I'll feeling the pressure to not let my trainer down. But I am way excited about everything I will be learning throughout my new life.
 My first pet was an Imp named Abatai. He was kind of annoying at first, making comments about how much he's not getting paid to help me and he'd rather be playing with his friends instead of keeping a noob like me out of trouble. I thought having a pet would be fun. Not Abatai, and trading him in to the warlock trainer for another was not an option. I either dismiss him till I'm ready to use him or keep him out an listen to his nagging voice all day long. As I progress in my training I will be able to summon another demon. I can't wait till then. I want to drown this little punk in the bright green river that flows through this city. Well I guess I gotta look on the bright side, at least I have some comic relief even though it is at my expense.
