Episode 103 of my World of Warcraft playthrough! This week I am in Silithus for the final time! Nice and quick zone, but we must press on to Felwood! Not long to go now until we are finished with Kalimdor!

Anyway, my WoW: Egg thoughts are as follows:

Being completely honest, I would've missed the announcement entirely except GeForce Now broke with BG3's latest patch and I just happened to refresh Facebook while GLARING at it and was like "oh right, that's a thing."

I legit thought for half a second that they'd decided to eschew cinematics in favor of getting a live actor to play Anduin for half a second, so idk how much the cinematics team is getting paid right now, but I'm petitioning for them to get a raise because goddamn.

I'm very glad they chose Thrall to come and give Anduin the news that his manpain is the new expansion. My boy is all grown up :,)

(I literally don't care if it's called The War Within, it's an egg)

If there isn't already Alleria/Xalatath fic out there, there needs to be.

I am so glad more than just my dragon mounts will now be able to do WHEE flying things.

I've been at this long enough that Delves is just Dark Elves to me, idk.

Lore seems fine or whatever. Apo is sort of sitting here like 'WHY. WHY HAVE YOU COME TO ME NOW WHEN I AM THIS.'

(meaning the full time job professional he is now and not the guild leader he was 10 years ago)

I'll play, because it's just sort of what I do, but so far I feel somewhat detached. Now if WoW 2 ends up happening at the end of the Egg saga, like if Azeroth hatches into "Azeroth, but with better graphics" then we'll talk with more excitement.

people love extolling the virtues of ball-and-socket joints and how it makes us more advanced and all that but I don't see any fucking octopuses in slings now do I. Bones are overrated and I want a refund.

[mbat]

its really funny changing the events of WoW for my OCs version of things because im just mangling the entire thing into something completely nonsensical just to be like. yeah i like that :]

reuploading this loop, didnt like the first version. enjoy =)

It's my birthday this week, see. I thought I'd treat myself to something nice. I'm here, browsing nerd shops, and finally finding out about the WoW tarot deck. Huh, I say. Tarot readings were always wrong for me, but hey, I've always liked the aesthetic! And clicking on the website preview, the 3 cards they show look pretty nice! Time to google more cards, I say!

Of course, googling the deck turns out exactly three things: The same shop previews of the Thrall, Silithus Sword, and Tyrande (or was it Jaina?). The same argument whether or not Tyrande is supposed to be Empress and shouldn't Jaina be it instead? And more reviews, all centered around the same ten cards everyone shows. "Want to see more? Buy the deck!!!!!!!"

Now the thing is, I don't really vibe with this capitalist dystopia we've created. I was this close to NOT buying the cards, because the 10 I've seen did not impress me much actually. Good, but not brilliant. I happened to then see one that did, and decide, fuck it.

See, I'm a slav, and I grew up in a simpler time. We were all piss poor, and there was maybe one kid with a color television, one kid with Stephen King books, one kid with a Pentium 2, one kid with a portable boombox, in a friend group. You bought one cassette tape and you took turns. You wanted to see the Warcraft Tarot Cards? Well, then you hoped your friend Smaranda who likes Warcraft a little too much would invite you over for snacks and stories, and you'd then see the cards. And those cards would look so neat, you would decide Hey. One day, I will have 25 dollars to spare, and I will buy these cards too! They are SO worth it! I've never bought something that was teased to me by "here's three pages for free you shitpoor scrub! BUY!". But things my friend Smaranda or Ivan or Petr showed? God. I filled my house with them. Shelves upon shelves of books and games I tried for free from a friend or a library and absolutely fell in love with.

Is this an anti capitalist and pro sharing rant? Absolutely. So tonight, allow me to be your friend Smaranda, and invite you over for tea, sweets, and a thorough viewing of

✨The Complete Official World of Warcraft Tarot Deck! ✨

Lads, I'm being copyright struck......

After a lot of brainstorming on my part and a lot of good input from @goodest-noodle, we are certain we have all of them pretty correct. The power of TWO Smarandas!

FIVE OF WANDS - The Explorer's League and The Reliquary SIX OF WANDS - Garrosh Hellscream, receiving Gorehowl after the Northrend campaign, with Y'shaarj looming over.

The meme, the legend. QUEEN OF PENTACLES - Moira Bronzebeard/Thaurissan KING OF PENTACLES - King Mechagon

CREDITED ARTISTS: Joseph Lacroix, Surfside 3D studio. Deck designed by Ian Flynn. If you fall in love with it like I did (no thanks to Those Ten Cards We All Know By Now), it's worth it for sure. You need to understand, my scanner borked, the cards are in fact smooth and shiny.

Now, go forth. Be Smaranda to someone. Maybe your friend that can't afford the tarot but always wanted to see what the Flynnshaw card looks like. Maybe your cousin. Maybe yourself. Maybe you too were wondering, would you like the deck? Should you go out and get it? But you weren't quite sure who'd be in it, or if you even liked the entire thing. Well, I hope this post helped.

Peace.

i am always here for anduin wrynn homosexual activity 🫡

in your lore does ev deflower anduin or was he a promiscuous little scamp beforehand

in my head anduin had sex a whopping two times before meeting ev

once as a teenager with wrathion, then once at 19 with a random woman because he was trying to force himself to be straight. it ended badly with wrathion because those two should NOT be together, and spoiler alert hes still gay after touching a boob

To those who still sense what shifts beneath—

This black blood does not pool—it moves. It breathes. It seeps through the world’s wounds, unseen yet everywhere. Undermine is but one fracture.

Where have you heard awakenings? What have you seen? 

This is not rot. This is something older. Something patient. Azj-Kahet. Silithus. Ice entombed beneath Northrend. The depths of the world, the halls of the dead.

Sanity may be just a suggestion.
