My guild was hoping to get another instance run going at the weekend, at about the same time as my death knight was running around for the Wyrmrest Accord and gaining 75th level. With four players on-line with characters 75th or above we start planning, everyone keen to try ...

I find myself in Northrend with no particular agenda, so I indulge the explorer in me for a while. Travelling northerly through Dragonblight eventually has me crossing in to Crystalsong Forest, where I spy some interesting ruins to investigate. My exploration pays off, as I reach the city ...
