Subject: Oh yeah...


HighHold Pass - an interesting zone for sure.

I logged in and decided to do some exploring. Instead of using my
invisibilty, I just wandered around like a moron. It was around 5pm Central
time so the campers had not yet arrived and the Orcs were in control. I
stumbled into them and managed to escape to the guards. You'd think that
would be enough of a warning to me but no I hadda go back for more and the
rest of the dorcs nailed me. Grrrrr! Needless death - I don't even wanna
look at my xp bar. Grrrrr! Wrong place - wrong time.

The early part of the night goes by and I have some adventures. But I
figger it's time to go back and get some xp. So, back in HH I go looking
for a group to join back by the dorc side. Nobody will have me. Wah!! So I
wander around but end up back there in not too long. Well, the place is like
a tornado tore thru it. Ded bods all over. And only a couple inky casters
hanging about.

And then I look up....Hargis Shraylock! He's spawned! I shout to the zone
Hurry! The two casters there start wailing on him. I equip my weps and
jump into the fray. Hmm, one brave caster is ded. And the second one is not
looking too good either! So here I am whacking away as hard as I can and
bellowing like mad! Maybe - just maybe I can put enuff dmg into him. And
then the second caster dies.

So it's me and old Hargis (sp?) I am dropping hp and old Shrylock is not
giving up his hp too easy. Pierce, slash, bellow, heal. anthem, rinse,
repeat... I am dipping into my 2nd last bub of hp and KA-BOOM! Down he goes!
I am looting him like lightning wondering what will happen if I die with the
loot window open - as two of his hench-orcs are pounding me. Hey lookie
there! Some kinda spear thing! Right-click, right-click (I sure hope I got
open slots) Excuse me dorcs, I cant stay and play - I gotta zone!

Yup - I nabbed a Shiny Brass Halbred!!! Grr - not able to equip it. Well,
I guess I can sell it - or find some suitable purpose. Yay! My first big
time loot!!! I got lucky for sure! Right place - right time!!
