A Short Visit

Fellow blogger Kamalia, of Kamalia et Alia, posted yesterday about wanting friends to hang with her at her house for a weekly quest. Since she plays solo for the most part, she'd prefer it be Battle.net friends, but if that wasn't happening she'd be open to grouping.

Well... that intrigued me a bit, so I asked a few questions in the comments, and then one thing led to another, and...

Surprise!

Yes, I pulled out my first max-level toon from 2009, Quintalan, for the visit. It's been a while since he's been out and about, as he's wearing his Tier 9 armor and wielding Quel'delar, but I thought it appropriate that he be the first toon to visit.

Kam showed me around...

From the foyer...

To a parlor/reading area, complete with a floating
book. That book tickled my funny bone.

Cardwyn: "Hey, me too!!"

And it wouldn't be Kamalia's house without several
Tauren-themed rooms.

She even had a laundry area put together, which
given I was actually finishing up a load of
laundry at the time, this was perfect.

This is the kids' room, complete with bunk beds.
And Ancient, if you're reading this...

All in all, she's done an amazing job of decorating.
But if you've ever read of my admiration of her
innate sense of decor and fashion, it's not a surprise.

We went to the edge of her property, complete
with tallstriders. No hawkstriders around, alas.

I had to admit that I wasn't sure if Quintalan even
had flying in the Old World, but at least the 
Community Center is reachable by ground mounts.
From there I could take a portal to Orgrimmar.

I took a lot more screencaps than I posted here, but this should give you a feel for what it was like visiting Kamalia's house. I told her that if she just needed a body to hang around every so often, I was more than up to the task. After all, I'm not raiding or anything, and it'd feel good to reconnect with more of my blogger friends in-game.
