Karazhan and Zul'Aman

Last night I had a long night of firsts. Most of which I say are pretty exciting so I'm happy to share them.

First off we were successful in finally finishing off Prince Malchezaar! This man is a major pain in the tookas to be sure. Every time we have ever fought him he has had the indecency to slam giant infernals everywhere we tried to stand. I suppose from his point of view, placing the infernals out of the way wasn't really in his best interest but all the same it was very frustrating.

I wish I could say that I was an instrumental part of this battle but I accidentally backed up into an infernal I hadn't seen land and died fairly early on in the fight. It wasn't until I realized we were doing so well that I begged Keste to help me up during the fight so I could assist finishing him off.

Our raid leader, Geearthur finally has his precious banana back that Prince stole from him oh so many months ago. I thought the banana might be a bit rotten but Geearthur ate it anyway. Yuck.

After our success with Prince, we decided to continue exploring inside of Karazhan and found Netherspite in a back hallway. This ghostly giant dragon was truly fearful to look upon. I was sufficiently scared just standing near by preparing for the fight.

The fight for this beast appears quite tricky and complicated. I think we understand the jist of what needs to be done, we just need to perfect the execution of the technique. We attempted Netherspite a couple times and decided to move on. I'm sure a few more hours in study on this subject would not go to waste and so I plan to do just that sometime this week.

After facing down Netherspite, we traveled to the Ghostlands to poke our heads inside Zul'Aman. I had never even traveled to the Ghostlands before and so I had a bit of a ride ahead of me.

The place is very... hmmm how do I put it? Native. Reminds me of my brief time spent in Stranglethorn Vale. That is not a particularly fond memory.

We paused for a photo op at the entrance before heading in. I believe we didn't do so bad considering the majority of us has never seen this place before. I really don't know how far in we got but we killed several sets of trolls and bear riders.

I was a little annoyed that our raid leader kept choosing to use a hunter's trap to control attackers rather than my reliable polymorph spell. Then the one time I was called upon to turn a troll into a sheep; the spell broke almost immediately (I think someone poked it) and ran into the Paladin's consecrate spell so it appeared that I did not do my job. *sigh*

Was a good time and I look forward to continue to see what is inside here.
